She's screaming out
Her silence is alarming
The symptoms of self harming
I see the mark
I see the scar
She's crying out
But there's no one around
She's leaving evidence for you to pick up on
The gothic look
It's a cover up
She's wearing black again
It's a hot summers day
She's in long sleeves
Doesn't that give something away
She's hiding inside herself
Punishing her body
The scars are the markings
Please help her somebody
She sits quietly
At the back of the bus
The kids around her all running amok
She wishes she could sink
Into the abyss
For she has succumbed to the theory
She'll always be like this
There's just no body that understands
She went through hell
In that mans hands
And now she feels dirty
She prefers
To cut deeply
For the more pain she feels
The more she forgets
And the more she forgets
The less self respect
Can't they see the signs
She is screaming silently out
Covering her wounds
And letting them bleed out
Just some love
Some tenderness
Oh sweet little girl
You can through the other side of this
Don't fall to far
Down the abyss
There's people out there
With bigger hearts
I promise
Her skin will always have the reminders
Of how dark the day once was
But I can see her ever so slowly
Breaking out from the fog
Learning to trust
Learning to love
She must crawl before
She walks
She must open her mouth and talk !
And you must listen
Open your eyes
There's no intermission
She needs people
To open their hearts
Don't judge
Just ask a few questions
It's a good start
The symptoms of self harming
I see the mark
I see the scar
She's crying out
But there's no one around
She's leaving evidence for you to pick up on
The gothic look
It's a cover up
She's wearing black again
It's a hot summers day
She's in long sleeves
Doesn't that give something away
She's hiding inside herself
Punishing her body
The scars are the markings
Please help her somebody
She sits quietly
At the back of the bus
The kids around her all running amok
She wishes she could sink
Into the abyss
For she has succumbed to the theory
She'll always be like this
There's just no body that understands
She went through hell
In that mans hands
And now she feels dirty
She prefers
To cut deeply
For the more pain she feels
The more she forgets
And the more she forgets
The less self respect
Can't they see the signs
She is screaming silently out
Covering her wounds

Oh sweet little girl
