Arms Of Scars

Give me a dose strong enough to kill
and I promise that I will
Give me a knife sharp enough to cut
and I promise that I'll finally give up
Give me a rope long enough to hang
and I promise my screams will be the last I sang
Give me a reason not to die
and maybe tonight all I'll do is cry

Chorus:
Let these words fade to skin
my life line is running thin
all the hurt I'll ever feel
is wrapped up inside of here

Black markers cover my arms
no need to cause alarm
laugh alittle at my scar
take a step back, dont go to far
faded insults in my mind
come back to haunt and remind
unseen bruises go un-noticed
no one here is truly focused
dying is what I want to do
to pull the trigger and aim true

Chorus

Everyone can believe a lie
accepting answer without asking why
a simple "yes" can change your life
to die a bloody death at the hand of a knife
people who live dont truly know
going through life utterly slow
teen suicide doesnt mean a thing
nothing more than dying from a cut or string
leaving is nothing more than simple pain
no one cares they died in vain

Chorus

Take your last pill
make sure to stay nice and still
tie your last knot
think your last thought
pierce your skin alittle to hard, alittle to fast
this feeling of bliss has to last
your dying now, your heart beat weak
is death exactly what you seak?
loosing time, loosing space
a cold body has taken my place

Let these words fade to black
life line will never be back
all the hurt I'll ever feel
is wrapped up inside my fear
