She's only 17, her whole life's ahead of her She hates school because the people there discredit her
Her boyfriend tries to show her that's not how it seems
But everyday she just gets lowered with her self-esteem
He let's her know that every night will have a brighter day
She even tried to overdose and take her life away
She's feeling hopeless and down by side of bed
And then he takes his hand and places it beside her head
He tries to hold her while but every time she still resists
And then he sees the scars are buried deep within her wrists
She's feeling numb, he tries begging her to ask her why
She says there's no way she has control of the pain she feels inside
He asks her how long it's going since she felt this
Way, because you got me here, feeling so damn helpless
She says it's been a while, I guess I need a better luck
And then he screams at her and tells her, baby please don't 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, it's a promise baby
Yeah, I know your heart is hurting, you think the road is ending
You may just feel that blade you're holding is your only friend
Baby don't cut, baby don't cut You can do anything, it's a promise baby
The next day at school, she's feeling better than the day before
Even cracked a couple smiles as she walked the corridor
All that seemed to end, she dropped her books and said she walked the class
Every student in the room just seemed to point and laugh
She couldn't take it anymore, she sent her boy a text
He said, I love you with my body, heart and soul to death
He thought nothing, typed 'i love you'' and then he sent it
By death he didn't know, she literally just missed it
She ducked in that classroom and home into her bathroom
Thought to herself she wouldn't break her promise that soon
Not one cut, not two cuts, not three cuts
But four the blood just started dripping from the tub to the floor
See her boyfriend had her feeling in his stomach that he felt it
He followed him down into 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
Cause nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own
And listen pretty lady, you don't have to be alone
Baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, it's a promise baby, yeah
I know your heart is hurting, you think the world is ending
You may just feel that blade you're holding is your only friend
Baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, just promise baby
He put his arm around her shoulder, he trying to lean her back up
Now I know her name as he lays her beside the bathtub
He felt his whole world just took a big hit from a big avalanche
Screaming out so heavily, somebody call an ambulance
Feeling mad angry, like someone let her onto this
Her eyeballs rolling, drifting out of consciousness
Thinking to himself, why the hell didn't she stop at will
Well, tears keep on rolling as they head to the hospital
Paramedics rushing, the doctor calls emergency
She just lost her blood, the place looks like a murder scene
Hour later, the doctor walks her with a sour face
And says, excuse me for the words I'm about to say
I'm sorry for your loss, the boy just starts collapsing
His own world, his own girl, just took crashing
Saying to himself that it's his fault and that he let it up
Baby, I thought you made a promise you would never cut
Nobody seems to get you, you feel you're on your own
Listen pretty lady, you don't have to be alone
So baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, it's a promise baby
Heart is hurting, how you think the world is ending
You may just feel the blades you're holding is your only friend
But baby don't cut, baby don't cut
You can do anything, it's a promise
Baby don't cut
Please don't cut
Baby don't cut
Baby don't cut
Baby don't cut
Baby don't cut
