Alone again with my pain
Alone again with my shame...

This is what I've been building up to
This unforgettable goodbye...

The past has long since been forgotten
And this heart has been lost and turned rotten...

Just when I want to live life
Just when I wanted to be real...

After she's gone
After the tears have all but dried...

I make the cuts deep
Almost delicate, almost graceful...

Just one more day to die
I say every time I cut, every time I lie...

How true words ring
When they are spoken from the heart...

I stop the food from my lips
I see the bones of my hips...

Don't be fooled by these maiden eyes
Don't be fooled by these pitiful lies...

The ridicule stings once more
Now that I find myself on the floor...

I think I know why I feel guilty
Each and every time I lay down to sleep...
