One for each mistake made

The razor shines in the dead of the night
My tears glisten as I whisper it'll be alright
My wall clock says it's four in the morning
I'm about to raise some hell
On my wrist I see old scars
On my thighs I see new ones forming
In the mirror I see a beautiful teenager
Lost in the darkness of her mind
She cries for help so silently
Never knowing when they'll see
She has been through so much
Yet still so little
She needs help
The razor glides across her pale skin
From white to red her night begins
One for the boy who stole her heart
One for the girl who tore her world apart
One for each name she was called
Slut and bitch
Emo, whore, and snitch
She never did anything wrong
Doesn't even know the girls who harass her all day long
She prays for refuge from this broken world
An angel ready to go back home
You see the ones that can't take it
Weren't meant for this life
Here goes another for the father that left her
At lest she got sixteen years with the fucker
One for the brother who molested her
One for the sister who can't stand her
Another for the lonliness that sits deep inside her
A couple for those that she had hurt
An apology that'll never be heard
She tries so hard just to fit in
She was never meant for this skin
Now that she's covered in her own tears
It's time to add one for each of fears
She shouldn't be weak
Or scared of the dark
Fuck her anxiety
And her inability to talk
Why is she such a pushover
She's needs to better herself
She tries so hard to be someone she's not
Don't forget you cheated on your diet
Add one for each calorie you consumed
She's trying this diet they call an eating disorder
Soon she'll be pretty like the others,
Now that you're done go lay in your bed
And think about what all those girls said
Know you're no good
To live the life you have
You're a piece of shit human
With a worthless dad.
