You slide the blade over your wrist,
And wait for the blood to drip.
It burns at first, a slight bit
Before the pain fastens its grip.

You've done it a couple of times,
So, you know how it goes.
Your left hand is filled with lines,
"Souvenirs of past hoes."

"This will keep your depression away,
The pain will keep your tensions at bay."
That's what your mind said.
That's what, they said.

You're not going through depression
If "13 Reasons Why" is the reason.

Besides,
You won't die if you simply pierce your skin.
Aim for the veins and commit the sin.
