Too Tempting

You had me tempted,
I had to go,
So close to yes,
So far from no,
You said it helped,
I thought maybe I'd try,
But I can not,
I know it's wrong,
That's why I left you.

You were like a knife upon my skin,
Saying drawing blood wasn't giving in,
I thought maybe your solution,
Could be my new addition,
No I can not give in,
I had to leave you,
Take the metal far from my skin,
You're problems away from mine,
That's why I left you.

Your love of yourself,
Was nothing but an empty hate,
I shed tears for you,
You cut in repay,
I thought maybe I'd join the club,
Buy a knife,
Cut as well,
I needed to banish these thoughts,
Of pain and blood saving me,
That's why I left you.
