The blade promises to make me feel alive
It rips through my skin to release the built up pain and tension
I feel no fear as the crimson ripples out
My tears join it on the wound
I remember the other promise
The one you made
So when it was slashed to pieces
My heart shrivelled and ripped
Like a horrible paper cut
Left unattended
My eyes are open
My lungs are still breathing
It just feels like I'm in the deep haze of dreaming
My mind is blank
My heart is black
And it's all from that inflicted crack
