Baby Don't Cut

She's only 17 her whole life's ahead of her
She hates school because the people they discredit her
Her boyfriend tries to show her that's not how it seems
But everyday she just gets lowered by her self-esteem
He lets her know that every night will have a brighter day
She even tried to overdose and take her life away
She's feeling hopeless there sitting down beside her bed
Then he takes his hand and places it beside her head
He tries to hold her close but with every touch she still resists
Then he sees the scars that bury deep within her wrists
She's feeling numb, he starts to beg and plead and ask her why
She says this way I have control of the pain she feels inside
He's asking her how long it's been since you've felt this way
Because you got me, and I'm feeling so damn helpless
She says it's been a while I guess I needed better luck
Then he screams at her and tells her baby never cut!

Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own
But listen pretty lady you don't have to be alone
So baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut
I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has ended
You may just feel the blade your holding is your only friend
But baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut

The next day at school she's feeling better than the day before
Even cracked a couple smiles as she walked the corridor
But all that seemed to end she dropped her books as she went into class
And every student in the room just seemed to point and laugh
She couldn't take it anymore she sent her boy a text
It said I love you with my body, soul and heart to death
Te thought nothing typed I love you then he sent it
By death, he didn't know that she had literally just meant it
She ducked the next class ran straight into the bathroom
Thought to her self she wouldn't break her promise that soon
1 cut, 2 cuts, 3 cuts, 4
The blood just started dripping from the tub to the floor
Her boyfriend had a feeling in his stomach that he hated
Followed it and ran down to her house he never waited
The front door was open, he heard the water running
He stormed into the bathroom and his heart just started gunning

Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own
But listen pretty lady you don't have to be alone
So baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut
I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has ended
You may just feel the blade your holding is your only friend
But baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut

He put her arm around his shoulder he's just trynna lean her back up
Yelling out her name as he lays her beside the bathtub
He feels his whole world just got hit from an avalanche
Screaming out so heavily, somebody call an ambulance
Felling mad angry like somebody led her on to this
Her eyeballs are rolling, drifting out of consciousness
Thinking to himself why the hell didn't she just stop at will
The tears just keep on rolling as they head to the hospital
Paramedics rush her in, the doctor calls emergency
She's lost a lot of blood the place looking like a murder scene
An hour later, the doc walks in with a sour face
And says excuse me for the words that I'm about to say
I'm sorry for your loss, the boy just starts collapsing
His own world, his own girl just took a crashing
Saying to himself that it's his fault and that he let it up
But baby, I thought you promised you would never cut

Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own
But listen pretty lady you don't have to be alone
So baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut
I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has ended
You may just feel the blade your holding is your only friend
But baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut
