• Blood, blood, on the floor
    Staining the earth forever more
    Shed for pain, and shed for lies
    Shed for love while others cry

    Crimson streams flow down my wrists
    Their color beginning to stain my lips
    I know this time I've gone to far
    As I lay here under the stars

    My body's sprawled out in the mud
    I can not stop the flow of blood
    Clutched in my hand is a cold, cruel knife
    This night I chose to end my life

    How could they do this? Be so cruel
    As if hurting me made them cool
    Everyday, they'd be back for more
    Their cruelty shaking me to my core

    It's hard to live life when you're always afraid
    Soon that pain they gave became something I craved
    That was the day I took my first blade
    The cuts on my arm, something I daily made

    How could they hurt me if I hurt myself first?
    This was my way I would end their cruel curse
    I knew deep down this would only hurt me
    But for the first time in awhile I truly felt free

    But their fists were something I couldn't escape
    They gaged me, hit me, and bound me with tape
    No one saw me or heard my cries that night
    They punched me, and tortured me far out of sight

    Hours later, I sat alone and knew I had lost
    They'd chosen to hurt me and now I'd pay the cast
    That's when the thought rushed to my brain
    I ran to the park as it started to rain

    I took out my knife, and slit both of my wrists
    I knew what I was doing! I just wanted to end this!
    They couldn't hurt me if I hurt myself first
    So with two more cuts I would end this curse

    Right now the blood will not stop flowing
    I see the darkness around me growing
    A tear slowly slips down my cheek
    I couldn't move. I felt so weak

    I knew now that this was the end
    They couldn't hurt me ever again
    I closed my eyes and took my last breathe
    I was free now, so I spread my wings and left

    Blood, blood, on the floor
    Staining the earth forever more
    Shed for pain, and shed for lies
    Shed for love while I die
