Keep Cuttin' Up

by ashley koler   Jan 31, 2005


I hurt so bad,
It's beyond describing.
I've made a mistake,
And now all I'm doin' is hiding.

Maybe I should stop,
Too many people know.
After a while,
It'll start to show.

I can't hide it
For the rest of my life.
Why'd I do it in the first place,
Why'd I pick up that knife?

I was so tore up,
Just on the inside.
I guess I just figured,
I'd do the same to the outside.

When I did it,
It relieved so much stress.
But it felt so good,
And I started to obsess.

All the hate,
It just builds up.
So I'm gonna do what I want,
I'm gonna keep cuttin' up.
