Walkthrough of "Cutting Words"
Why do I let words hurt me
Why do I let words hurt me
More than these cuts and bruises
I bleed and bruise
Because I choose
To control some hurt
Make all else feel inert
There are so many reasons why people cut themselves or other forms of self-harming. One major reason is for control. You don't hurt yourself because your life is so great. You hurt yourself because you're already hurting and you can't control it. When you inflict pain upon yourself, you finally have control. How much pain. What kind of pain. To start and stop the pain. And the current pain, even if it's just temporary, makes you forget all the other pain in your life.

Why do I seek approval
When I don’t approve of myself
I need to be wanted
Because I am haunted
Of being alone enough
That suicide won’t be a bluff
Cover up with sleeves to hide the scars even in the summer. When you're that depressed, you need to find comfort in other people. And if you don't then who knows what you might do on this path alone.

Why am I jealous of friendships
When I know that they all have to end
I know everyone leaves
Taking my treasure like thieves
The only thing I desire
Is to not fall for another liar
When you rely on others for your sanity, you usually need them more than they need you. You tend to take everything personally and everything hurts more when it doesn't work out. It feels like they're stealing your happiness when they leave because they are your only source of happiness. And that makes it harder to open up to new friends since you're afraid of going through that painful process again.

Why do I feel a need to bleed
When I know I won’t live much longer
I live from day to day
Not knowing what to say
If anything at all
How badly I want to fall
Self-harming isn't the same thing as being suicidal. You might feel like you're in so much pain that you want to die. But you don't really want to die. You want to get better, but you don't know how. The only way you know to keep going is to self-harm. It's a way of self-medicating. It's a temporary solution that gets you to the next day. Well, it's not really a solution since it doesn't address the problem and because of that self-harming on its own will not get you to a place of healing. Without talking or working out the problem in a healthier way, you might just get to the point where you do want to die.
