I Put It Down

I feel the knife in my hand. This is exactly how I planned.
The knife sinks deeper into my skin. No tears come out, but it hurts within.
There is blood dripping around. Falling, splashing, onto the ground.
I cover it up like no big deal. But this is the pain I feel.
All of a sudden the phone starts to ring. I touch the cut and it starts to sting.
I answer the phone and hear your voice. Then I realize I have no choice.
I pick up the knife and hold it near. Now this pain draws a tear.
You ask if everything is okay. Then I pull the knife away.
You are the only one who is here for me. All of this pain would never be.
If only he hadn't broken my heart. If only he hadn't ripped my world apart.
Now I love you as both sister and friend. And I hope you stop it from being the end.
So when I hear your voice at night, I put the knife down, cause it'll be alright
