Pain Is Only The Beginning...Scars Are The Result

I can't see those bloody crimson scars
But i know how they appear
I've experienced the same pain you have
And cried those same lonely tears
I understand how you feel
And how you think about suicide
Locked in your bathroom with your blade
Trying not to cry
I feel the sorrow in your soul
Through your hazel eyes
And i know how it feels
To want to end your life and die
Between wakefulness and sleep
I can hear your heart-filled cries
How your heart gets broken
And another piece gives up and dies
Your patchwork crimson ribbons
On your shoulder are not wrong
The result are scars from pain
That sometimes might last long
But just to remind you
If you die you will be missed
Your daily suicide thoughts
Aren't an illusion, the do exist
I'm here to remind you
That i will always care
If you ever need me
Don't forget that I'll be there...
