Slipping Away From It All

My voice is starting to fade
I can hear it crumble inside of me.
I'm sorry for being so distant,
But your words are killing me.
Please forgive me.
I didn't want to be like this,
The pain just shattered me
Breaking what's left of my heart.
And you're stepping on the pieces of me.
And the words that I need to say
Are buried deep inside,
Past this fake disguise.
I need to have something to hold on to.
For I am slowly slipping away.
So I take this razor
And let the sadness bleed away
A cry for help,
A scar to show you what you mean to me.
Another mark to hide under these sleeves.
I feel my voice falling away from myself,
And I feel the pain dripping away.
