Okay I'm looking too much into this, but seriously Leona Lewis singing this?
I agree with Pink Lemonade Fairy I really think that the Leona Lewis Bleeding Love is about SH as well, though obviously not meant to be at all

Though I also really agree with Lampost's comment! :-s

We all do it over everything. When we're (humans) inlove all of a sudden every song becomes a love song, when we're upset every song becomes a sad song, when we're grieving every song becomes a song about loses. (to an extent) Just an observation.

GlassJaw - Two Tabs of Mescaline

It can be more applied to Ed than SI, but I think some of the lines carry over to SI as well.

There is a song on Youtube about SI that I really like.
Search for the profile of MisunderstoodSoul; she has written a song about her experiences with SI.
Unfortunately, the sound quality is very low but the honest lyrics and the melody are great.
At the end of the video, there is a pic of some of her scars and it could be triggering.



I can't control my destiny.
I trust my soul. My only goal is just to be.

I'm selfish, inpatient and a little insecure.
I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle but if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best. (Marilyn Monroe)

my favorite band has two songs that I've interperated as being about self-injury...

Scary Kids Scaring Kids
Faith in the Knife:

it's getting colder
each and everyday
the nights get longer
i slowly fade

find me some beauty
in this empty place
before you know it
i'll be gone without a trace

give me a reason to
wake up and face the light
i've been searching for
a way out of this life
how will i make it through
this long and bitter night?

(with no hope that i'll find a sign)
(with no hope that i'll find a sign)

when things like breathing
feel like a waste
it seems like leaving's
the only way

the best intentions
they never got me by
i can't escape this
it has overcome my mind [x2]

it has overcome my mind [x3]
overcome my mind

give me a reason to
wake up and face the light
i've been searching for
a way out of this life
how will i make it through
this long and bitter night?
(with no hope that i'll find a sign)
(no hope that i'll find a sign)
(no hope that i'll find a sign) [x2]

nothing this good
could last forever
(tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)
i put all my faith in this knife
(tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)
the blood spills as the tears fall from your eyes

i hope for the best
there's nothing left

[a fire burns inside]

lets celebrate the romance in it all
(tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight)
i put all my faith in this knife
(goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight)
the blood spills as the tears fall from your eyes

Tyson Stevens has written the most beautiful song lyrics... here's another one called The Only Medicine, this is one of my favorite songs ever:

I wash it down, just to block out all the sound.
I never thought I'd be alone. Well look at me now.

Sleepless nights, painful goodbyes.
Who the hell was I kidding?
The room starts to spin,
all alone and bleeding once again.
Can you help me make this.. make this ****ing end?

[Chorus]
Oh my god there must be something,
Something to take the pain away.
And so there's nothing you can give me.
It's probably better off that way.

Just forget, all I ever wanted was to forget.
Bloodshot eyes and a starless sky.
Who the hell are we kidding?

You look so content, I guess the bright side hasn't found me yet.
Pull me out so I can catch my breath.

[Chorus]

I live my life in the shadows of the things I try to hide.

[Chorus]


this song (also by sksk) means a lot to me. the first time I heard it, it was like.. instant epiphany. this song helped me stop hurting myself for half a year:

What's Said is Done by Scary Kids Scaring Kids:


We watched these days go by,
The seasons changed and faded away, and the things I’ve learned to love grow old and die.
There’s no reason why, no reason why, no reason why, no reason why...
Cause life’s too short to spend alone in misery.
Everybody seems to look the same,
I feel so alone and now my head is bowed in shame again,
So I look to the heart of the devil for answers.

This path is like a loaded gun, but what’s said is done.
You don’t have to say a word.
I’m so afraid to ask,
I’ll turn my back block out the past; find me something true that isn't sad.
I’m so afraid to ask, this solace never seems to last,
I turn away as the sunshine fades to black.

I spend my nights and days, locked away; they’re all the same,
I don’t know how much more I can take.
What’s left to say, what’s left to say, what’s left to say, what’s left to say?
Cause life’s too short to spend alone in misery.

This path is like a loaded gun, but what’s said is done. You don’t have to say a word. (x5)

I’m so afraid to ask,
I’ll turn my back block out the past; find me something true that isn't sad.
I’m so afraid to ask, this solace never seems to last,
I turn away as the sunshine fades to black.
I’m so afraid to ask,
I’ll turn my back forget the past; find me something true that isn't sad.

This path is like a loaded gun, but what’s said is done, you don’t have to say a word.

every time I hear it, I get chills. it still has that effect on me, especially the bold lines. I wish it was enough to make me stop for good... /:



underneath the threat of giving in,
I give it all once more.
quietly dissolving under lights that call me home...... this is how it begins, quietly counting backwards from ten, nine, eight.... sevensixfivefourthree... but I can't concentrate on anything...
no one can save me.. I'm not even here. I am drifting from consciousness into oblivion... someone is shutting me down.

Chameleon Boy, by Blue October...It's where my screename comes from. amazing lyrics, sort of slow:

i changed my color for you
i shed my coat with caution
i lack the beauty you display
see here there are the bruises
and some were self-inflicted
and some showed up along the way
so i nod my head
im ready for the world to see
the secret i kept here inside the man you thought id be
slip into coma calm
the coma where i calm myself down
here comes excuses why i let you down

stand by for another breakdown
sound off the alarm
is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become
chameleon boy
chameleon boy

so now weve come upon the hardest thing ive ever done
its telling you that im a mess
what sort of mess i mean
is self-destructive gasoline
the kind that strips you of your best
and while i play insteadthe way that most would end up dead
you sleep alone at home and wish that i was in our bed
with this im telling you
my color changes back to blue
how do i ask you this
will you help me through

stand by for another breakdown
sound off the alarm
is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become
stand by for another breakdown
sound off the alarm
is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become
chameleon boy
chameleon boy

i try to think of all the people i look up to
or growing up who would i be
now the twisted part
whered all my idols end up
they all passed away
passed away

stand by
its chameleon boy
stand by
its chameleon boy
Chameleon Boy
I'm chameleon boy...
chameleon boy...

I cant believe no-one had written ohio is for lovers by Hawthorne hights! (i cnt spell it...sorry)
"So cut my wrists and black my eyes..."
Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls is a great song...

I know this song has nothing to do with SI...but Nobody's Home by Avril Lavigne is an excellent song...

I dunno if this has already been put down... But 'Hurt' by Johnny Cash is about SH I think. It has some referance to Jesus aswell.

'I hurt myself today, to see if I still feel.
I focus on the pain, the only thing that's real.
The needle tears a hole, the old familiar sting.
Try to kill it all away, but I remember everything.

What have I become? My sweetest friend.
Everyone I know goes away in the end.
And you could have it all, my empire of dirt.
I will let you down, I will make you hurt.

I wear this crown of thorns, upon my liars chair.
Full of broken thoughts, I cannot repair.
Beneath the stains of time, the feelings disappear.
You are someone else, I am still right here.

What have I become? My sweetest friend.
Everyone I know goes away in the end.
And you could have it all, my empire of dirt.
I will let you down, I will make you hurt.
If I could start again, a million miles away.
I would keep myself, I would find a way.'
