I love you more than you could know
But this is a side I rarely show...

Why does it help me?
Scratching razor through flesh...

Don’t cry tonight,
Just not for me...

I once was abused
I felt torn and forgotten...

The darkness was fading
So slowly, but still...

In this box
With a lonely window...

Tip the candle
Cast the flame...

I drown in guilt,
The bottle’s empty...

Every bad grade
Holds a moment in eternity...

If words could say
How great it feels...

Hunger, it settles
After lingering for days...

I’m here dwelling on memories
Of the old you and I...
