Hurt

I hurt myself that day
Not to see if I still feel
But to take the pain away
The only way I knew how to deal

I tried to cry it out
But the pain remained
I tried to scream and shout
But the torment was the same

Why'd you do those things
You made me feel like dirt
And I still feel the sting
Why did you want me to hurt

When I looked at the razor blade
There was nothing to impress
But the pain was soon replaced
With comforting emptiness

When I felt my skin tear
The pain started to leave
Leaving nothing but despair
And sadness inside of me

What had I become
I needed help
Just look at what I'd done
But I didn't know who I could tell

I watched the blood flow
And it stained every shirt
The only way to make it go
The only way to stop the hurt

I wish that I knew why
Why I felt that way
Why I wanted to die
It hurt so much to stay

It still surprises me how
How it took away the pain
And when I look at myself now
I know I'm not the same
