Daily Habit

I watch the blood run down my skin
passing cuts and scars
and as I watch this happening
my problems seem so far

I've done this so many times before
I can't no longer feel the pain
so I cut deeper and deeper ever time
as my mind slowly goes insane

I no longer have that guilt inside
it's replaced with a wicked grin
as I look for the next cut to make
I slice the blade right through my skin

When I'm done I simply cover it up
and go back to my daily ways
No one knows this secret of mine
and that's the way it will stay
