Cut

This was a piece inspired by a song, Cut, by Plumb. The song expresses how painful and difficult a struggle like cutting is. The song really moved me, and i wanted to dedicate something to it. Please listen to the song, its a very beautiful piece. [link] or [link] will take you to the song. This is a favorite band of mine, and i wish i could do the song justice.

*Note, there is no actual cutting involved in this picture, its all makeup. I do not support cutting, this picture was meant to help people realize they arent alone. Also, all copyright stuff goes to plumb. awesome band.



Cut
by Plumb

I'm not a stranger
No I am yours
With crippled anger
And tears that still drip sore

A fragile flame aged
Is misery
And when our hearts meet
I know you see

I do not want to be afraid
I do not want to die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists I find it when
I am cut

I may seem crazy
Or painfully shy
And these scars wouldn't be so hidden
If you would just look me in the eye
I feel alone here and cold here
Though I don't want to die
But the only anesthetic that makes me feel anything kills inside

I do not want to be afraid
I do not want to die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists I find it when
I am cut
Pain
I am not alone
I am not alone

I'm not a stranger
No I am yours
With crippled anger
And tears that still drip sore

But I do not want to be afraid
I do not want to die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists I found it when
I was cut
