Power of Pain


You think the pain can take away the pain so you hurt yourself thinking you'll gain. You mark the marks and make them hide, The marks symbolize the hurt inside. you think if you cut deep or hurt more it'll make better the things in store. Cause you can hide the things that are real You make the marks real to hide the things you feel becuase the things you feel hurt your pride, You can hide the marks, but not what's inside. What you need to realize your thinking is sick, what your brain tells you is a trick. you cut yourself to gain control, but you're not cutting your skin, you're cutting your soul. Dont listen to the voices you hear scars won't cover what you truly feel. You won't find release in a wound, not near nor far you can find it when you are ok with who you are.
