there's the me
that knows you,
that sees you
that you
unlocks this me
I like him better.
he likes you more.
There you are,
I see you now.
You take the shards of yourself
and run them across my face.
the placid, frozen-smile, carefully in place
Happy. So happy. You cut me
You don't wait around, to watch me bleed.
You don't care, you wouldn't dare
I look after you, and know I should run
Back to you, I wanna run back to you
I feel it, I feel it.
Broken people cut me
and sometimes I like it.
Broken people cut me
and sometimes I like it.
You drag your words, across my tongue
I know I ought to turn and run,
You cut away the fake
Broken people cut me. And sometimes,
I like it.
I feel it.
Deeply.
Am I an emptional maschochist?
How can joy compare?
It's not as sharp. You can't
cut me with a spoon
You need the thin, razor edge
to bleed.
Feeling something
is better than feeling nothing.
