She's only seventeen, her whole life's ahead of her
She hates school because the people are discredit her
Her boyfriend tries to show that's not how it seems

But every day she just gets lowered with her self esteem

He lets her know that every night will have a brighter day

She even tried to overdose and take her life away
She's feeling hopeless there, just sitting down beside her bed
And then he takes his hand and places it besides her head


He tries to hold her but with every touch she still resists
and then he sees the scars that bury deep within her wrists

She's feeling numb, he tries to beg and plead and ask her why
She says this way has she control of pain she feels inside


He's asking her: "How long it's going since you felt this way
because you got me here just feeling so damn helpless."
She says: "It's been a while, I guess I needed better luck."

And then he screams at her and tells her: "Baby never cut."

Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own

But listen pretty lady, you don't have to be alone
So baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything just promise baby you won't cut


I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has end
You may just feel that blade you're holding is your only friend


But baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything just promise baby you won't cut


The next day at school she's feeling better than the day before
even crack a couple smiles as she walked to the corridor

But all that seemed to end, she dropped her books when she walked into class
And every student in the room just seemed to point and laugh


She couldn't take it anymore, she sent her boy a text
She said: "I love you with my body, heart and soul to death."
He thought nothing, typed: "I love you." then he sent it

By death he didn't know she had literally just meant it

She ducked her next class, ran home into her bathroom

Thought to herself she wouldn't break her promise that soon
One cut, two cuts, three cuts, four..
The blood just started dripping from the tub to the floor


Her boyfriend had a feeling in his stomach that he hated
He followed it, ran down to her house, he never waited

The front door was open, he heard the water running
He stormed into the bathroom and his heart just started gunning



Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own
But listen pretty lady, you don't have to be alone

So baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything just promise baby you won't cut


I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has end
You may just feel that blade you're holding is your only friend


But baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything just promise baby you won't cut


He put her arm around his shoulder, he's just trying to lean her back up
Yelling out her name as he lays her beside the bathtub
He feels his whole world just took a hit from an avalanche

He's screaming out so heavily: "Somebody call an ambulance!"

Feeling mad, angry like somebody let her on to this

Her eyeballs are rolling, drifting out of consciousness
Thinking to himself: 'Why the hell didn't she just stop at will?'
The tears just keep on rolling as they head her to the hospital


Paramedics rush her in, doctor calls emergency
She lossed a lot of blood, the place is looking like a murder scene

an hour later, the doc walks over with a sour face
and says: "Excuse me for the words that I'm about to say

I'm sorry for your loss." The boy just starts collapsing
His own world, his own girl, just took a crashing

Saying to himself that it's his fault and that he led it up
"Baby, I thought you made promise you would never cut"


Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own

But listen pretty lady, you don't have to be alone
So baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything just promise baby you won't cut

I know your heart is hurting, you think the road has end

You may just feel that blade you're holding is your only friend

But baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything just promise baby you won't cut
