Wasn't My Fault
There's a letter in my notebook from when I was young It reads, "I need to go mom, if I don't I'll kill myself" I wrote this not because she was a bad mom But because I felt like the worst daughter I used to pick up razors and drag them along my skin As if I were painting the Sistine Chapel I did this not because I liked the feeling But because I just could not feel My whole life I would do things not because of others But because of myself I attacked and hurt myself thinking it was all my fault I got raped by five guys when I was 10 I went home and locked it up in my mind not even thinking about it for the next 7 years I kept quiet, not because I was afraid of them but because I was ashamed as if it were my fault That's the thing "My fault"? Why did I put these ideas into my head It wasn't my fault It wasn't my fault
