Cut Like A Razor

Cut Like A Razor

A Poem by Elizabeth Porterfield
"

A song about fighting back against the people who cut you down

"

Verse 1

A bloodred sky

Above your head

A darklit flood in your eyes

You think you're so strong

But now you're so dead (to me)

I will no longer live by your lies

 

Chorus

Try to raze me

(Cut me down)

You wont faze me

(I won't drown)

I'm amazed you still think you can hurt me

Now I'll show you

Just what I can do

You'll regret that I remembered you

 

Verse 2

A starlit sky

Now turns to black

And I know that I cannot go back

I've gone too far

To let you

Tear me down again

 

Chorus

 

Verse 3

So you fall

Into the darkness

That surrounds you

Not at all

What you thought

We would become

 

Chorus

You'll regret that I remembered you

What is in parenthasis is just supposed to be screamed, what is underlined is supposed to be screamed and sung. What do you think of it? Be honest:)

thank you very much Luna:) I'm glad you like it:)
I remember singing this with you, I just wish I could scream it like I used to. This has always been one of my favorites as you don't write very much screamo.
