Self-Injury Songs - Garbage
I don't need an education
I learnt all I need from you
They've got me on some medication
My point of balance was askew
It keeps my temperature from rising
My blood is pumping through my veins
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else
I wear myself out in the morning
You're asleep when I get home
Please don't call me self defending
You know it cuts me to the bone
And it's really not surprising
I hold a force I can't contain
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
I've got to make a point these days
To extricate myself
Somebody get me out of here
I'm tearing at myself
Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me
And still you call me co-dependent
Somehow you lay the blame on me [3x]

avalanche is sullen and too thin
she starves herself to rid herself of sin
and the kick is so divine when she sees bones beneath her skin
and she says:
hey baby can you bleed like me?
c'mon baby can you bleed like me
chrissie's all dressed up and acting coy
painted like a brand new christmas toy
he's trying to figure out if he's a girl or he's a boy
he says:
hey baby can you bleed like me?
c'mon baby can you bleed like me
doodle takes dad's scissors to her skin
and when she does relief comes setting in
while she hides the scars she's making underneath her pretty clothes
she sings:
hey baby can you bleed like me?
c'mon baby can you bleed like me
therapy is speedie's brand new drug
dancing with the devil's past has never been too fun
it's better off than trying to take a bullet from a gun
and she cries:
hey baby can you bleed like me?
c'mon baby can you bleed like me
it's gets all fucked up in some karaoke bar
after two drinks he's a loser after three drinks he's a star
getting all nostalgic as he sings 'I will survive'
hey baby can you bleed like me?
c'mon baby can you bleed like me
you should see my scars
you should see my scars
you should see my scars
you should see my scars
and try to comprehend that which you'll never comprehend
