Sitting on a cold bathroom floor
It’s almost morning but she can’t sleep
She’s got a razor in one hand
And no control in the other
She cries red tears
While her pain runs down her legs
She relates peace
With pieces of herself

There’s darkness in the room
She can’t look upon her pain
Long sleeves in the summer
No umbrella for the rain

She’s finally calm enough to go to sleep
Only fearing tomorrow will be worse
And she’ll find herself again
Sitting on a cold bathroom floor
It’s almost morning but she can’t sleep
She’s got a razor in one hand
And no control in the other
She cries red tears
While her pain runs down her legs
She relates peace
With pieces of herself

Red Tears

Sitting on a cold bathroom floor
It’s almost morning but she can’t sleep
She’s got a razor in one hand
And no control in the other
She cries red tears
While her pain runs down her legs
She relates peace
With pieces of herself

There’s darkness in the room
She can’t look upon her pain
Long sleeves in the summer
No umbrella for the rain

She’s finally calm enough to go to sleep
Only fearing tomorrow will be worse
And she’ll find herself again
Sitting on a cold bathroom floor
It’s almost morning but she can’t sleep
She’s got a razor in one hand
And no control in the other
She cries red tears
While her pain runs down her legs
She relates peace
With pieces of herself
