Self-Injury Songs - Tori Amos
some boy you are
to take me by the hand
through an elevator
got a little red line
that tells you, boy
where the razor's been
you said, girl if you think
you can turn that violator
you'll finally be that woman, yes
finally be that woman
that's been frozen
in that pretty silver gown
i've never seen blue
like the blues he drives
in and around
and through me again
i said, i've never seen eyes
like a blues he drives
in and around
and through me again
through me again
through me again
some boy you are are
to wear my color red
to wear it very proudly
and wear it like a lady
knows how to cross her legs
where the birdie's been
i've never seen blue
like the blues he drives
in and around
and through me again
said i've never seen eyes
like the blues he drives
in and around
and through me again
through me again
through me again

i hurt myself today
to see what could feel
hey, yes..
somewhere back to you, i said
somewhere back to you
-0. Hurt (intro to Precious Things)
~
i hurt myself today
to see if i could feel
i hurt myself you said
to try to make him feel
so i hurt myself again
to see if he'd see me
i hurt myself again
i know he never could see me
-0. Hurt (intro to Caught a Lite Sneeze)

somewhere long ago
in the mountain tops, say
somewhere not far from here
me and beenie had a little falling out
somewhere long ago
not so long so i don't remember
so long
we can see now
take a little love you and me
take a little love me like you say
take a little wax sometimes
cause sometimes i hear him
take me there i'm stronger still
take me there when he's calling me
take me back to a time
i would sing all day
i hurt myself today
to see if i could feel
i hurt myself today
to see if he could hear
and then i hurt myself today
to see if you could feel
i said you hurt yourself sweet boy
i tried to never let you.....
-0. Hurt (intro to Bells for Her)
~
i hurt myself today
you never could
you never did
you're full of shit
you never did
-0. Hurt (bridge to Caught a Lite Sneeze)
