I cut a little deeper
Just to ease my pain 
I don't cut for attention
Or for sympathy I would gain 
I cut to feel alive
To feel so free 
I know this is Cliché 
But it is what it is
The scars, the wounds
They all tell a story
Painful and sad, but all too true
Im here to say it's okay
I'm here to say I'm a "cutter" too 
I fit that stereo-type
Whatever that is.
