Don't Give Up


Pain seeping throughout my bones
I just feel so alone
Wishing someone was here
As I'm crying to wipe away the tears
I can't stand the way i feel
My heart is the weakest steel
Almost about to break my mind
Feeling like I'm out of time
My past will always be there to remind me of my decisions
That's why i use these safety pins
To leave scars on my arms and my wrists
I clutch my hand into a fist
Out of all this anger i let it go
Were it just goes to show
I can over come this thing i call life
throw away the knife

Can you have faith in me

Because there are things i know i don't believe

Stay strong
If you lose it'll all be gone
