Tracing Veins
Downplay, learn to take a hit
Get a grip, it only hurts a little bit
Let my innocence decay, tell me I'll be okay
New prescription, temples throbbing
Not my fault, still say I'm sorry
Holding hands with my misery
Head between my knees as I question my sanity
Softly crave to be
If I close my eyes I can pretend it isn't real
Pushing pins through my fingertips is second rate
Another friend chose their own expiration date
I need a stimulant I'm stuck on repeat
It's a hard pill to swallow but it's slow release
I hope you're happy
I hope that you'll be proud of me
Kind of twisted I care after what you did to me
Scared of being touched cause I still see your face
And now I'm sitting in corners tracing my veins with razor blades
The truth hurts
And it gives me chills
Turn the flash off I'm trying to hide this broken brain on the inside
I'll just trim my nails with my teeth
Mix amphetamines with caffeine
When I seize to breathe will there be a sequel
Pushing pins through my fingertips is second rate
Another friend chose their own expiration date
I need a stimulant I'm stuck on repeat
It's a hard pill to swallow but it's slow release
I hope you're happy
I hope that you'll be proud of me
Kind of twisted I care after what you did to me
Scared of being touched cause I still see your face
And now I'm sitting in corners tracing my veins with razor blades
It might feel good to finish something
Be in control
But I'll stay
Cause you'll be gone someday
And my soul will be freed from the shackles you put it in
Look me in the eyes, pretend you don't remember
I spent my whole life trying to forget
Put a smile on my face
The day your heart stops will be my great escape
Softly crave to be
If I close my eyes
Get a grip, it only hurts a little bit
Let my innocence decay, tell me I'll be okay
New prescription, temples throbbing
Not my fault, still say I'm sorry
Holding hands with my misery
Head between my knees as I question my sanity
Softly crave to be
If I close my eyes I can pretend it isn't real
Pushing pins through my fingertips is second rate
Another friend chose their own expiration date
I need a stimulant I'm stuck on repeat
It's a hard pill to swallow but it's slow release
I hope you're happy
I hope that you'll be proud of me
Kind of twisted I care after what you did to me
Scared of being touched cause I still see your face
And now I'm sitting in corners tracing my veins with razor blades
The truth hurts
And it gives me chills
Turn the flash off I'm trying to hide this broken brain on the inside
I'll just trim my nails with my teeth
Mix amphetamines with caffeine
When I seize to breathe will there be a sequel
Pushing pins through my fingertips is second rate
Another friend chose their own expiration date
I need a stimulant I'm stuck on repeat
It's a hard pill to swallow but it's slow release
I hope you're happy
I hope that you'll be proud of me
Kind of twisted I care after what you did to me
Scared of being touched cause I still see your face
And now I'm sitting in corners tracing my veins with razor blades
It might feel good to finish something
Be in control
But I'll stay
Cause you'll be gone someday
And my soul will be freed from the shackles you put it in
Look me in the eyes, pretend you don't remember
I spent my whole life trying to forget
Put a smile on my face
The day your heart stops will be my great escape
Softly crave to be
If I close my eyes
