Starting To Scare Myself
By darkness_descends
I'm scared of myself
I've fallen back into my hell
My insane addiction
To pain infliction
Cutting myself
Turning my skin into a bloody canvas
I've started again
After have control so long
Now I can't stop
I don't even know if I want to
Even though it does me no good
It is my only release
But it doesn't help for long
Before I want to do it again
I'm worse than I ever have been
I have lost control
Of myself and my addiction
How long can I hide my scars
And explain away hundreds of cuts?
New ones every day
How long can I tempt myself with the knife
Before I give in and take my life?
It's worse than it's ever been
And I'm starting to scare myself.
