My Only Friend

Another day awakens to the howling of the wind
Another sleepless night spent lying in my bed
Everything's awry, don't even know where to begin
Again I find myself crying, tear after tear I shed

I always lose the ones that mean and care the most
All it takes to end a bond is one pathetic lie
I stand and watch my life go by, feeling like a ghost
While everyone around me just stares and asks me why

Crying never helps me heal, it only makes it worse
Writing doesn't work at all, not knowing what to say
Sometimes I feel as though I am lost, alone, and cursed
The feeling grows inside my heart each and every day

I reach to my only friend, the only one who's there
His beauty shines into the light, a twinkle in my eye
His name you will never know, our secrets I won't share
He's by my side each night and dawn, until the day I die

He's very sharp and edgy, he brings euphoric pain
His tears are crimson red, feeling cold to the touch
He makes me feel as though I am not the one to shame
I never thought an object could ever mean so much

I get chills when I press the blade across my arm
Releasing every problem bottled up inside my veins
The deeper the better, without intentions to do harm
Until only each and every scar is all that shall remain

It's wrong in just so many different ways, I know
Yet I can't help but do it when it makes me feel alive
So once again I pull him out with nowhere left to go
He drags across my skin...and then I take the dive
