Dead or Alive?

Dead or alive?  I'm not sure anymore I feel heartbeat But see no blood Breathing  But voices tell me I'm dead This is an illusion  Somebody wake me up I can't see I can't feel I long for the sharp pain and the red blood I remember the blood  dripping off my arms to the floor Shaking, crying Begging and waiting For blood to come To see if I'm alive I long for the broken glass For the blood  Stop the voices Somebody, please help me I'm frightened I tear into my skin  Demanding to feel pain To feel alive Somebody rescue me from this pain I'm hurt and alone My heart hurts  I'm fighting a battle I'm losing a rigged battle
