Red like a rose
It runs like a river
I cry as i watch it
I know i can stop it
All i need to do is put it down
But i cant breath
I have no control elsewhere
I enjoy seeing the color
I know i need help
Im well aware its sick
But i know its my only control
My only escape
Just one more i say to myself
But one turns to two
And two to three
Till im done and sitting there
I pick myself up and clean it up
I never let others see
No mater the pain
I put on a smile
No one sees through the smile
Or the long clothes
Or mabey they do
Mabey they dont care
Any way as it runs red ill sigh
Ill feel guilty and hide it
In fear of the names
Of the looks
As my scars they grow
So dose my mental wary
I hace so little hope
But i keep on for as long as i can
Feeling guilty for my weakness
Feeling weak from my faliure
As i tell myself never again
But i know thats not true
Ive tried time and time
To stop it to not snap
But control i crave
And for that control i cave
So it continues to run
Like a red river
And i continue to smile
Never asking for help
