Baby Don't Cut

[00:10.19] She's only 17, her whole life's ahead of her

[00:12.95] She hates school because the people there discredit her

[00:16.19] Her boyfriend tries to show her that's not how it seems

[00:19.21] But everyday she just gets lowered with her self-esteem

[00:22.74] He let's her know that every night will have a brighter day

[00:25.71] She even tried to overdose and take her life away

[00:28.94] She's feeling hopeless there just sitting down beside her bed

[00:32.18] Then he takes his hand and places it beside her head

[00:35.22] He tries to hold her but with every touch she still resists

[00:38.43] And then he sees the scars that bury deep within her wrists

[00:41.42] She's feeling numb, he tries to beg and plead and ask her, "Why?"

[00:44.45] She says this way she has control of the pain she feels inside

[00:47.94] He's asking her, "How long it's going since you've felt this?

[00:50.50] Way because you got me here, just feeling so damn helpless."

[00:53.94] She says, "It's been a while. I guess I needed better luck."

[00:57.72] And then he screams at her and tells her, "Baby, never cut!"

[00:59.71] Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own

[01:02.94] But listen, pretty lady, you don't have to be alone

[01:06.22] So, baby, don't cut, baby, don't cut

[01:09.74] You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut

[01:13.20] I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has end

[01:15.73] You may just feel that blade you're holding is your only friend

[01:19.19] But baby don't cut, baby don't cut.

[01:22.19] You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut

[01:25.45] The next day at school she's feeling better than the day before

[01:28.44] Even cracked a couple smiles as she walked the corridor

[01:31.72] But all that seemed to end: she dropped her books when she walked into class

[01:35.22] And every student in the room just seemed to point and laugh

[01:38.20] She couldn't take it anymore, she sent her boy a text

[01:41.46] She said, "I love you with my body, heart and soul to death."

[01:44.72] He thought nothing, typed "I love you", then he sent it

[01:47.44] By "death" he didn't know that she had literally just meant it

[01:50.48] She ducked the next class, ran home into the bathroom

[01:53.72] Thought to herself she wouldn't break her promise that soon

[01:56.73] One cut... two cuts... three cuts... four

[01:59.97] The blood just started dripping from the tub to the floor

[02:02.97] Her boyfriend had a feeling in his stomach that he hated

[02:06.25] He followed it right down to her house he never waited

[02:09.50] The front door was open, he heard the water running

[02:12.52] He stormed into the bathroom and his heart just started gunning

[02:15.50] Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own

[02:19.00] But listen pretty lady you don't have to be alone

[02:22.75] So baby don't cut, baby don't cut

[02:25.27] You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut

[02:28.75] I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has end

[02:31.50] You may just feel that blade you're holding is your only friend

[02:34.74] But baby don't cut, baby don't cut

[02:38.25] You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut.

[02:40.76] He puts her arm around his shoulder, he's just tryna lean her back up

[02:44.26] Yelling out her name as he lays her beside the bathtub

[02:47.75] Feels his whole world just took a hit from a big avalanche

[02:50.75] Screaming out so heavily, "Somebody call an ambulance!"

[02:53.75] Feeling mad angry like somebody's led her onto this

[02:57.03] Her eyeballs are rolling, drifting out of consciousness

[03:00.02] Thinking to himself why the hell did she just stop at will

[03:03.00] The tears just keep on rolling as they head to the hospital

[03:06.02] Paramedics rush her in, the doctor calls emergency

[03:09.51] She's lost a lot of blood the place looks like a murder scene

[03:12.75] An hour later, the doc walks over with a sour face

[03:16.23] And says, "Excuse me for the words that I'm about to say

[03:19.27] I'm sorry for your loss, " the boy just starts collapsing

[03:22.49] His own world, his own girl just took a crashing.

[03:25.50] Saying to himself that it's his fault and that he let it up

[03:28.74] "Baby, I thought you made a promise you would never cut."

[03:31.73] Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own

[03:34.77] But listen pretty lady you don't have to be alone.

[03:38.01] So baby don't cut, baby don't cut

[03:41.25] You can do anything, just promise baby you won't cut

[03:44.50] I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has end
