Reach for the stars

and don't look back

She's grabbing the

blade

Don't cry baby.

Drawing the blade closer

to her skin

look to the sun

slowly it pierces,

penetrating the flesh

and see the stars

Don't ponder the past

digging the blade deeper

'till the pain is real

Don't bath in the sorrow

blood running down

the mutilated arm

because you afraid

of happiness

what is left, is a girl

Wanting pain, but only feeling

numb inside.

Fear will bring you down.

One more time she says,

Just to feel.

It will eat way at you

the blade now a

familiar friend,

ready for one last go.

Until there's nothing left.

This time though,

she's gone to far.

For now she feels,

she feels the pain.

Don't choice fear

sobs rack her body.

Don't close the door

Don't give in, Don't give up.

She's no longer sobbing

just convulsing.

She's trying

to stop

the bleeding.

Yet, unsuccessful

she remains.

Keep the door open

There's nothing left

now, though.

Just a crying girl,

her bleeding arm

and her scars

and you will heal.
