I'm Just A Child Again

Lost inside myself, with no hope of return
I cry out hoping that someone will hear me
My pleas are abandoned by those who call me 'friend'
They ignore my tears and the blood that runs

I'm just a child again
Crying myself to sleep
The red runs thick
And pools on my bed

I can't help myself, the knife has it's own will
Once more I cry out but my voice is gone
No one can hear me because they don't care
They won't miss me when my sheets are drenched

I'm just a child again
Cutting myself to sleep
The blood flows freely
And drips on the floor

I've given up all my hope in a shining prince
They no longer exist in this world
A hand reaches out to save me, to help me
But it is too late for that

I'm just a fucking child again
Killing myself once more
My wounds healing over
But the sheets are still soaked

I look up at you, who tried to save me
The disgust is apparent on your face
I don't even try to grasp your hand now
Because I know it will be gone forever

I'm just a child again
Crying myself to sleep
The red will run thick
Never to be stopped
