She’s upset,
Bad day,
Heads for the dresser drawer to drive the pain away,
Nothing good can come of this,
She opens it, there’s nothing,
There is only leftover tears,
Mum and Dad have no right she screams,
Anger runs down both of her cheeks.

Then she closed her eyes,
Found relief in a knife,
The blood flows as she cries.

All alone the way she feels,
Left alone to deal with,
All the pain drenched sorrowed relief,
Bite the lip just forget the bleeding.

And then she closed her eyes,
Found relief in a knife,
The blood flows as she cries.
Then she closed her eyes,
Found relief in a knife,
The blood flows as she cries.

Curled up she’s on the floor,
Relief left her she had,
Hoped for something more from it,

Hoped for something more from it.

And he leans down to comfort her,
She is weeping as he,
Wraps his arms around,
And around and around and;

The deeper you cut,
The deeper I hurt,
The deeper you cut,
It only gets worse.
The deeper you cut,
The deeper I hurt,
The deeper you cut,
It only gets worse.
Gets worse.

Is she slowly opening?
Is she slowly opening,
New eyes?

And then she opened her eyes,
Found relief in his life,
And put down her knives.

Then she opened her life,
Found relief through his eyes,
And put down,
She put down her knives.

Well she won’t leave this night alone,
And she won´t sleep at all
And all the sorrow that she takes out on herself
It comes around and leaves her bleeding on the floor
And she knows
Yeah she knows that there’s a lot of ugly things about this world

These street lights
They shine bright
As they illuminate the darkness of the pavement
They shine
As we try to write in on her arms
The love she longs to taste
And we’ll find that inside
That she’s a broken heart that anyone could save
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright

Feeling worthless, self-destruction
Try to take control of this
Find a purpose, reconstruction
Write it somewhere it will stick
And stars are hiding now
But there’s something out there still
And she knows
Yeah she knows that there’s an awful lot of beauty in this world.

These street lights
They shine bright
As they illuminate the darkness of the pavement
They shine
As we try to write in on her arms
The love she longs to taste
And we’ll find that inside
That she’s a broken heart that anyone could save
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright

And the stars are always there
But we miss them in the dirt and clouds
We miss them in the storms
Remember hope
Remember hope
Hold onto hope
We have hope
Hold onto hope
(It’s alright)
