The Razors Against Our Skins


It is intuition, I think When we're going through pain It comes to our minds, nobody teaches us how to do it One moment we find ourselves looking at it And the next moment blood lines are drawn on our skins And suddenly It becomes our best friend because we don't need words to explain our pains to it,we just carve our skins with it and somehow it understands and takes all the pain away It's a high, an addiction, a very dangerous one cause if we aren't careful enough We end up in body bags because of it
