The Blade Across My Heart

Dissociation

Broke me again

got lost in the amenesia

and now a blade went across the skin

only a minute lost in time

to someone who wasn't even supposed to be fronting

but that's all it took

to take a blade across the skin

four cuts scold my thigh

burn with disgrace

a year lost

for no reason

other than a bad day

and an alter who went rogue

this wasn't supposed to happen

everything was fine

but she wanted to destroy it all

hurt us

we worked so hard

for it all to crumble 

in just a seconds time

one second singing to my favorite song

the next bleeding

hurt

broken

and we regress back to a year ago

when we had nothing

when we thought we were going to die

yet we made it

and we will do it over and over again

because we are survivors.

Not quitters.

Not broken.
