Self-Injury Songs - In Flames
It's not so much the pain
It's more the actual knife
Pretending the picture is perfect
I cut myself to sleep
I close my eyes for a second
And meet a fragile soul
I scream to to hide that I'm lonely
The echo calls my name
If I ever, if I never...
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make my see, make me pay
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
(x2)
The water drops just beg to hit me
Why now? Haven't rained for days
No time to play hide and seek
I call upon you to take on
Break down to pieces
Put me back, do it right this time
Struggling to fill this empty shell
Burn my efforts in the end it means nothing
If I ever, if I never...
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make my see, make me pay
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
(x2)
These thoughts... Burned a hole in my heart
These thoughts... What keeps me feeling
These thoughts... Burned a hole in my heart
These thoughts... What keeps me feeling
If I ever, if I never...
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make my see, make me pay
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in

You Took a knife and carve it in
Want to see your faults
As a part of your pretty skin
Everyone has a tragedy
I want you to wear yours in pain
Oblivion can no longer shade you
Reminded by the tattered tissue
Bleak silence
Errors stigmatized in you
A weak worn out friend
There's nothing left for me
Again and again
Your face reminds me of a bleak future
Despite the absence of hope
I give you this sacrifice
You're so far, behind
Be my hero
Drift away
Save yourself
Don't end up zero
Cause I look the other way
I will crawl into your vault
Pass snakes and old rotten thoughts
Leaving a hotbed of virulence
Your world inside slowly redesigned
Again and again
Your face reminds me of a bleak future
Despite the absence of hope
I give you this sacrifice
You're so far, behind
Be my hero
Drift away
Save yourself
Don't end up zero
Cause I look the other way
Again and again
Your face reminds me of a bleak future
Despite the absence of hope
I give you this sacrifice
You're so far, behind
Be my hero
Drift away
Save yourself
Don't end up zero
Cause I look the other way
You're so far, behind
Be my hero
Drift away
Save yourself
Don't end up zero
Cause I look the other way (Save yourself)
