I bet no one knew
I did this to myself
that shows you can never tell
who really needs your help
so take a look around you
try to spot and see
someone who has cut themselves
someone just like me
so this is a sad story
about my life
and I used to cut myself
but never with a knife
I used different tools
it became almost an art
because each one meant something
they put ease to my heart
now you might think I\'m crazy
or downright insane
but this is what saved me
it erased the pain
now I\'m not trying to support it
it was a stupid decision
but I felt so much better
with every incision
it set aside the thought
of some tragic event
like the loss of a loved one
before god they were sent
I even did this crap
for such little things
and I did it so often
it became routine
I have a high tolerance
grew higher anytime I was sad
I cut myself deep
never thought it was too bad
but they always left nasty scars
so take my advice
before you pick up that blade
think about it twice
I bet no one knew
I did this to myself
that shows you can never tell
who really needs your help
so take a look around you
try to spot and see
someone who has cut themselves
someone just like me
a message to the people
who take part in self-harm
stop what you\'re doing
keep that blade off your arm
think about the consequences
of all those ugly cuts
even thinking about it now
makes me sick to my guts
whether desperate for attention
or for serious reasons
don\'t hurt yourself for feelings
that just change with the seasons
bad things piling up
I know it\'s starting to get heavy
but keep those bad thoughts out
because those can be deadly
think about all the good
and just empty your mind
kick those bad thoughts out
and leave them behind
now look at what\'s left
al those memories that stay
keep those good ones coming
drive the bad ones away
now think about your future
and the clothes you have to wear
to prevent someone from asking
“what happened to you there”
because you\'ll be regretting the past
as you silently reminisce
and you ask yourself
why\'d I ever do this
I bet no one knew
I did this to myself
that shows you can never tell
who really needs your help
so take a look around you
try to spot and see
someone who has cut themselves
someone just like me
