One cut- that's it - that's all

One cut that's it that's all
One cut will leave you stress free
One cut, you said, that's it that's all

One cut, you said, won't hurt I swear
One slit on your arm right there
I watched you slit your arm then I did it too
I don't know I guess it was the cool thing to do

One little cut, I'll be fine
Then I started cutting all the time
I became addicted, I needed to cut my arm
A few more cuts won't do any harm

But one day my mom walked in
What are you doing and when did you start
As all the memories rushed though my head

I got help and now I'm better
So I wrote you this letter
When I got back I asked where you were
Mom said you never got help, something happened to her

One cut, that's it that's all, you said
And you almost wound up dead
Now I know one cut is all it take
One cut is such a huge mistake
