I don't know why I'm doing this.
I don't see what's so unfixable.
But It's getting harder all the time
To deal
To breathe
This pain in my arm is so much easier
I can't take it in my heart anymore.
I need the scars to remind myself
That I need you.
I need you.
You are the only one who understands.
The only one I want to understand.
If they all knew
It would only be worse.
They judge us; They sneer.
None of them see what we are.
What we could be
And what we can do.
But this pain in my arm is so much easier
I can't take it in my heart anymore.
I need the scars to remind myself
That I need you.
I need you.
I need to stop.
(Help me to heal.)
I need to feel better.
(Hold my hand)
I need to breathe again.
(Keep my head up.)
But most of all
I need you.
I need you.
I need you.
