lyrics

She’s A Cutter
Words and Music by Dave Howard
©2015 Upaya Music (SESAC)

She’s a cutter
She’s a bleeder
She’s a runner
She’s a screamer
She’s a lost little girl and in her mind’s eye
it’s a cold and lonely world that won’t ever get better
She’s a cutter

She runs to her room and closes the door
Nobody knows how she feels anymore
Emotions and life are just out of control
She lights a candle and empties her soul
Opens her journal. Opens the knife and says
“What do you want to do with your life?”

CHORUS

Headphones are blaring so she cannot hear
Don’t let them know if you’re straight or you’re queer
Aching for love that she pushes away
Runs in the night and she sleeps in the day
Doesn’t need anyone, feels so strong
Always showing up where she doesn’t belong.

CHORUS

She’s only happy if she’s pissed
Daddy’s little girl doesn’t exist
Suicide plans that always fall through
Just like rainy days with nothing to do.

CHORUS
