Glasses breaking
Emotions quaking
She begins to cry
As they continue to fight

She hides, knowing the fight will soon begin
But he storms towards her, cursing her sins
Blocking it out, she lets reality fade
In this astral world she knows she is safe

But astral can only last for so long
Soon she is back within her own home's walls
The arguing and fights steadily grow
So broken inside, a pain she must never show

But it does show, through the scars on her skin
Fighting a battle she knows she can't win
The pain and sadness she holds deep inside
Is let out through the cuts she knows she must hide

So each time she's hurt, with every argument that starts
She picks up a razor blade and makes another mark
The slice of the blade against her soft skin
Gives her security, and she must do it again

Over and over until the pain is released
She slices her skin, and is finally at ease
Blood starts to form from the cuts she just made
And for now, she knows, she survived another day

As the blood flows she knows she's still alive
Her body at least, the soul is broken from lies
Blood dripping down, is the pain leaving her soul
Sadly it's fleeting, she will never be whole

The depression returns, and builds over time
And, again, she tells herself "Just one more time."
But the cutting continues, depression occuring again
And when she cant handle it, the razor becomes her friend
