No Candle Burns For Me
written by SuperBob

Spent the day counting my lies
Two hundred on the left
Sixty-seven on the right

Spent the day counting my scars
Two hundred on the left
Eighty-six on the right

Spent the day trying to figure out why
I didn't stop at three
I multiplied it by ninety-five

Spent the day dealing with pain
It was all just my past
It is all that I am

Spent the day counting each time I lied
Each time I cut away the pain
And still I know not why

I really did spend the day counting how many times I've cut myself
