This song is about my head, what I’m thinking about on the daily. And re-thinking about leaving. And in the intro and outro, I’m saying no one understands. No one turns and looks at you and just notices. So as a person it just doesn’t make me feel a whole. It just makes me feel like… like I’m not wo...
Intro:
It's like, like no one gets it
Like if your crying and crying for help
But no one turns around
You know?
Verse 1:
I'm screaming in my head
These thoughts about my death
I cannot seem to cope
When I'm hanging from this rope
I just wanna be dead just laying in my bed
Saying it will hurt me
But it'll hurt you instead
Chorus:
I don't wanna hurt them, but I don't wanna live
Saying I wanna leave, and I'll be good with him
If I say I'm leaving, please don't be afraid
I got a knife on my back
Yet I'm still holding a blade
You said I'm a star, I don't know who you are
You said you didn't hurt me, but look at all my scars
Look, they're on my arm, or look at my heart
Do you know what I've become?
Nothing. 'Cause I'm numb
Verse 2:
I don't wanna live my life if this is all it is
You say "don't do that" so why you say "take risks"?
What's the point in life if I'm just gonna hide?
I don't wanna do that, so this is my goodbye
Chorus:
I don't wanna hurt them, but I don't wanna live
Saying I wanna leave, and I'll be good with him
If I say I'm leaving, please don't be afraid
I got a knife on my back
Yet I'm still holding a blade
You said I'm a star, I don't know who you are
You said you didn't hurt me, but look at all my scars
Look, they're on my arm, or look at my heart
Do you know what I've become?
Nothing. 'Cause I'm numb
I don't wanna hurt them, but I don't wanna live
Saying I wanna leave, and I'll be good with him
If I say I'm leaving, please don't be afraid
I got a knife on my back
Yet I'm still holding a blade
You said I'm a star, I don't know who you are
You said you didn't hurt me, but look at all my scars
Look, they're on my arm, or look at my heart
Do you know what I've become?
Nothing. 'Cause I'm numb
Bridge:
I don't know if I will ever live without this knife
'Cause I know I'll always live this hard life
This is not the first, I've been stabbed hard twice
And it never fails, I cry every night
(Instrumental)
Chorus:
I don't wanna hurt them, but I don't wanna live
Saying I wanna leave, and I'll be good with him
If I say I'm leaving, please don't be afraid
I got a knife on my back
Yet I'm still holding a blade
You said I'm a star, I don't know who you are
You said you didn't hurt me, but look at all my scars
Look, they're on my arm, or look at my heart
Do you know what I've become?
Nothing. 'Cause I'm numb
Outro:
So like at the end of the day, I'm nothing
It's nothing
Like my feelings don't matter to anyone
No one turned around
