lyrics

another year gone by
you are more than machinery
you woke in a hospital bed with tubes in your wrist
and you knew you’d never feel safe again

i used to cut my skin so i could feel alive again
but now i feel nothing when my arms are red
subway stops flashing before your very eyes
like your entire life has passed you by

i can’t make you call me by name
just let me breathe ‘cause there is no pain like having a body
i can’t make you, make you call me by name
(i can hurt you, i can hurt you)
just tell me, tell me i’m the mistake that you made
(let me hurt you, let me hurt you)

it’s only day three and i’m already making promises
to kill myself before the year’s done

i can’t make you call me by name
just let me breathe ‘cause there is no pain like having a body
i can’t make you, make you call me by name
(i can hurt you, i can hurt you)
just tell me, tell me i’m the mistake that you made
(let me hurt you, let me hurt you)
