Set Yourself Free

I see the razor

I see the blade

Cut, cut, little one

I see the broken glass

From the window pane

Cut, cut, little one

I see the lost look

In your empty eyes

Cut, cut, little one

I see the tears flow

I hear the pain you cry

Cut, cut, little one

Cut, cut, little one

Deeper than the time before

Another scar tattooed on your arm

Another blood stain on the floor

So, cut, cut, little one

And set yourself free

I see your hands

Now shaking in fear

Deep, deep, little one

Your mind is cluttered

Sweet pain is near

Deep, deep, little one

You sigh at the bite

As the blood flows free

Bleed, bleed, little one

Cut your arm, cut your hand

Cut your wrist, cut your knee

Bleed, bleed, little one

Bleed, bleed, little one

More than the time before

Blood stain your bed sheets

Blood stain your bedroom floor

So, bleed, bleed little one

And set yourself free

Your eyes are glazed

Your breath is soft

Die, die, little one

Your body is numb

Your mind awash

Die, die, little one

Your conscience fails

Your eyes close tight

Bye, bye, little one

Your breathing stops

Darkness becomes light

Bye, bye, little one

You are now free

Wake, wake, little one

This is but a dream

A nightmare to bring you back

A nightmare to make you see

So, wake, wake, little one

Set yourself free
