She sucks me dry and
Lets them in
She runs her blades
Across my skin
The scabs she leaves
Will never mend;
She'll pick them 'til
They bleed again
Before she leaves to
Sleep around
She nails my feet
Right to the ground
So I'll be there
When she comes back
She binds my arms,
Paints my eyes black
So I can't see the
Other girls
Or reach out to the
Wider world
I can't slip away
Because she never goes far;
She stole all my hope
And she owns all my scars
