One Cut Too Deep - ©2005

verse 1
Fist closed tightly
She braces for the pain
The edge of frustration
Opens virgin skin

Cold steel warms quickly
As blue turns to red
Blade falls gently
Light flickers overhead

She only wanted to hurt
Didn't mean to go this far
Just to feel something worse
Or leave another scar

Moment of emptiness
Grave consequence to keep
Precious soul flies away
Body goes to sleep

chorus 1
Can't undo what's been done
And now she's gone
One cut too deep

verse 2
Voices of children
Crawl underneath the door
Blood falls like teardrops
Through cracks in the floor

Nothing left to feed on
Demons finally die
Angel at the window
Hides her head to cry

chorus 2
Dreams fall to the ground
And now she's gone
One cut too deep

verse 3
Suddenly peaceful
She doesn't feel a thing
No disappointments
Or things that might have been

No explanations
Or farewell notes to find
Reasons are lost now
Forever in her mind

chorus 3
Soon comes the dawn
And now she's gone
One cut too deep

outtro
Can't undo what's been done
And now she's gone...
