Blank
Breath in
it hurts
Breath out
it hurts
Breath in
it hurts
Breath out
it hurts
In thru my mouth out through my nose
Tap my fingers together
Play with my ring or with a zipper or anything
I hear the ringing in my ears again
Don’t start biting hands
Everything is a blur again
hand still hurts like hell from last time
All I smell is rubber
Do anything to keep myself from zoning out again
All I taste is rubber
Don't let things go black
I can't keep faking
I don’t want to see my thoughts up close
Everything is black
I’m so scared
Please make it stop
I can't feel anything
I just want to be happy
I just want to feel alive
But I can't so
I really would like to die
But I'm scared to
