CUT:
You cut b/c you care
About all the things they've done
Breaking down your heart
To have they're little fun
Your friends just look away
Your parents do not see
You want to tell them all
But you suffer silently
I've seen the tears you cry
Blood drying on your cheeks
You push us all away
You've been dying here for weeks
I reach my hand out to you
But you turn your back on me
I'd take your pain away
But you will not let me see
Cuts are on your arms
Scars that barely fade
I know the things you do
And I hear the things you say
But when I try to help
You hide inside your shell
I want to pull you out
But you suffer in your hell
Your world is smothered in shame
From all the things you've done
You want to kill yourself
But you cannot find a gun
You're too frightened of a noose
And you're frightened of the pain
I'd love to take it all away
But this is how they gain!
Don't you see what they all do?!
Can't you tell they do not care?!
The more you cut, the more they laugh!
The things they do aren't fair!
They make you want to cut
And they make you want to bleed
But put away that blade!!!
For your pain there is no need!!
Teachers say it's just a phase
And counselors step back
No one wants to listen
To your heart that slowly cracks
But when you want to cut
You reach for that damn blade
That's what they want you to do!
Don't let your feelings fade
Stand up for yourself
Cuz I'm sick of all your s**t
Don't you understand!?
I don't want you just to quit!!
I'm here for anyone
I'll offer you a smile
I want to make you laugh
And be better for a while
I'll listen to you talk
And I won't turn away
If you've got something in your head
Then just open up and say
If you're scared that I won't care
If you think that I won't hear
I can promise you today
That I'll always hold you dear
If you're a stranger on this site
Or someone I know about
I'll be open to your thoughts
I won't even feel a doubt
So you cut b/c you care?
B/c of what they've done?
Don't you see I'm here for you
And you don't have to run?
Reaching for that blade
Won't do you any good
Spilling all that blood
Won't ease it like it should
And doing any drugs
Or drinking all that s**t
Won't help you in the end
Those habits you must quit
So I urge you all today
In every little way
Keep that blade at bay
B/c things will be okay
I've been where you have been
I've cut the cuts you have
I've beaten myself bloody
And tried to stop and laugh
So I know that it is hard
To ignore the pain inside
But cutting won't relieve it
And you don't have to die
Write it out on paper
Or tell me when you can
I'll offer you a shoulder
And a helping hand
The scars on my arms fade
Day by day, they leave
And I write the things I feel
And that it my release
I hope I've taught you something
So your pain that you can bare
I know you want to live some days
So I'm showing that I care
