Help

July 2, 2016

Help me, i'm calling your name

Is it possible for you to look at me without disgust and shame?

i'm reaching out for you, please take my hand

I am begging you, its not a selfish demand

 

The scars are layered upon my arms

the demons surrounding poison me with their charm

 Help me, I'm calling your name

Dont look me in the eye and say that i'm to blame

 

Help me, I'm calling your name

You pull me in like a moth drawn to a flame

You're so toxic for me

I have got to break free

 

The thoughts are getting louder it seems

The blade against the skin shines and gleams

help me, I'm calling your name
