Red is my blood and
Pale is my skin
Dull is the knife as I
Slash through my sins

Let it go
Bleed
Show me the red
Let it fade
Love
Make it all disappear

That blade you're holding
Take it and hurt me
The pain that I crave
Make it mine
Make real

I'm hurting and somehow
I'm better this way
The red on my hands
It just won't go away

Dry those tears on your eyes and
Smile for me

Somehow I'm better this way

Tonight
I'll number the stars that are over my room
I'll stay up alone and write songs of depression
Stopping to wonder when it will end
And when I'll start breathing again

Let it go
Bleed
Show me the red
Let it fade
Love
Make it all disappear

I'm hurting and somehow
I'm better this way
The red on my hands
Is a stain

Watch where you're going
You're right in my way
Let go of my knife
It's my one tool for pain

That blade you're holding
Take it and hurt me
The pain that I crave
Make it mine
Make real

Let it go
Bleed
Show me the red
Let it fade
Love
Make it all disappear

Don't say you're sorry
I'm not mad at you
You'll never hurt me as
Much as I will

Red is my blood and
Pale is my skin
Dull is the knife as I
Slash through my sins

Let it go
Bleed
Show me the red
Let it fade
Love
Make it all disappear

Don't hate me
Don't cry, and just
Don't think at all
I can't help myself when it comes down to this
It's all self-inflicted
And why should you care?
It's not like you to run back to wishing

Let it go
Bleed
Show me the red
Let it fade
Love
Make it all disappear

Cry if you must
But don't say you love me
No one could ever

Not even me
