The scars tell a story
Of pain that runs so deep
Outside the blood falls like tears
Inside my soul weeps
Each cut tells the hurt
That I can’t seem to explain
Each mark on my body
Bares my secret shame
I want to give this up
And leave it in my past
But it’s hard
Cause the urges come on so fast
I long for a release
From all the pain within
I want to let it out
So I no longer feel condemned
But I feel like I’m held captive
To this addiction of mine
I just pray
That I can beat it over time
