dull blades and shiny things
i was never normal and i was never sane
and over and over, im falling apart again
i can't repair all these broken things

cutting slowly just to feel the pain
something i can control for a change
and i don't even notice and i don't care
that this blade won't ever be sharp enough
to undo all the hurt i've caused so far

i always believed i was stronger than this
and you've given me hope in small white pills
but as i'm drowning here in my loneliness
i don't know if there's anyone that can cure this

exhale slowly just to breathe again
something i can't feel for a change
and i don't even notice and i don't care
that time won't ever be enough
to heal all these self inflicted scars

sifting through what remains
of fading hopes and shattered dreams
i dont know what i was looking for
i dont know who i am anymore
kicking through the ashes
of my own heart when i burned out
struggling through more days like these
cut by all these broken things
