You and I

Why do I do this to myself,
Why can't I just have a normal life,
Just be an ordinary girl,
Without the scar from a knife,

People need to accept me,
Like me for who i am,
They don't need to judge me,
Just because I have blood on my hands,

They don't know what I feel,
They can't say they know what its like,
To watch their skin peel,
Like I do every night,

Everyone is always saying stop,
Well its just not that easy,
You in over the top,
I don't do it for you, I do it for me.
