I didn't think I'd have to look much into this thread to find this. This came to mind right away. It's one of my favourite songs. I'd recommend it to all of you.
Oh I have 2 great songs by Sia, they're not self harm but really good anyway, I'm in Here and Don't Let me Down. Gonna go download this one now.
i havent read all the other posts so i dont know what has already been suggested but scarlet by brooke fraser, scars by papa roach, breathe me by sia, bleed like me by garbage, the way she feels by between the trees, addicted by kelly clarkson, last resort by papa roach, thats all i can think of right now
It won't let me edit but that should be Don't Bring me Down, not Don't let me down. Also I'm sure I've posted this but was listening to Secrets by Outcast youth earlier, I totally relate to the first verse.
I'm trying to tell you
I'm trying to know you
I'm dying to show you
Fighting to get you
Soon as you got me
You go and drop me
It's cruel when you burn me
I love how you hurt me
Oh no, I'll never let you go
Oh no, I hate that I need you so
It's not what you said
It's the way you say it
It's not what you did
It's the way you do it
Sick and tired of needing your affection
I chose to be lonely than live without your
Attention
I scatch your sweet name
Right into my skin
You left me bleeding
But I couldn't give in
I swallowed all the poison to get infected
Give back my heart that you body rejected
Oh no, I'll never let you go
Oh no, I hate that I need you so
It's not what you said
It's the way you say it
It's not what you did
It's the way you do it
Sick and tired of needing your affection
I chose to be lonely than live without your
Attention
I'm standing in the pain
That's smothering me
It's more becoming my own brother can see
That I'm starving for your love
And I need attention
Or I'm gonna die
It's not what you said
It's the way you say it
It's not what you did
It's the way you do it
Sick and tired of needing your affection
I chose to be lonely than live without your
Attention
Attention
I've been alive a bit longer than you, and dead a lot longer than that. I've seen things you couldn't imagine, and done things I prefer you didn't. I don't exactly have a reputation for being a thinker. I follow my blood, which doesn't exactly rush in the direction of my brain. So I make a lot of mistakes, a lot of wrong bloody calls. A hundred plus years, and there's only one thing I've ever been sure of: you.
I loved you, you made me, hate me.
You gave me hate see?
It saved me and these tears are deadly.
You feel that?
I rip back, every time you tried to steal that.
You feel bad?
You feel sad?
Im sorry hell no **** that!
It was my heart, it was my life, it was my start, it was your knife.
This strife it dies, this life and these lies.
These lungs have sung this song for too long, and its true I hurt to remember I loved you
[Chorus]
I've lost it all fell today its all the same
I'm sorry oh (I'm sorry)
I'm sorry no (no)
I've been abused, I feel so used, because of you
i'm sorry oh (I'm sorry)
I'm sorry no (no)
I wish I could have quit you
I wish I never missed you and told you that I loved you every time I ****ed you
The future that we both drew and all the **** we've been through
Obsessed with the thought of you the pain just grew and grew!
How could you do this too me
Look at what I made for you it never was enough and the world is what I gave you
I used to be love struck and now I'm just ****ed up Pull up my sleeves and see the pattern of my cuts!
[Chorus]
Seems like all we had is over now, you left to rest.
And your tears are dried up now, you just lay without a sound.
Seems like all we had is over now, you left to rest.
And my fears are over now, I can leave with my head down.
[Chorus]

It's not about self harm, but to me it is - Exquisite Corpse by Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
"a hardened razor cut scar map across my body
and you can trace the lines through misery's designs
that map across my body"
(and also where I got my subtitle from)
Haveb't read the entire thread but
watch me bleed by scary kids scaring kids (although its not completely about self harm)
Cut by Plumb
Damaged by plumb (again not self harm its really good)
Hero by to write love on her arms
saving you by to write love on her arms
I could go on and on lol :)
I will love myself despite the ease with which I lean toward the opposite.
Time Stands Still.../Resume... by Sopor Aeternus, well more these lines: "Time heals nothing, nothing, nothing ...
Spitefully turns away and laughs.
Leaves you half-broken and in defiance is only added another scar ..."
Though other parts mention scars/wounds not healing
do not know if anyone has said it but "All My Life" - Foo Fighters
All my life I've been searching for something
Something never comes never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around then it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
The feeling comes to life when I see your ghost
Come down don't you resist
You have such a delicate wrist
And if I give it a twist
Something to hold when I lose my breath
Will I find something in that
So give me just what I need
Another reason to bleed
ONE BY ONE hidden up my sleeve
ONE BY ONE hidden up my sleeve
Hey don't let it go to waste
I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keeping me down [x2]
Will I find a believer
Another one who believes
Another one to deceive
Over and over down on my knees
If I get any closer
And if you open up wide
And if you let me inside
On and on I've got nothing to hide
On and on I've got nothing to hide
Hey don't let it go to waste
I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keeping me down [x2]
All my life I've been searching for something
Something never comes never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope
All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around then it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
The feeling comes to life when I see your ghost
And I'm done, done and I'm on to the next one
[x8, then x4 but yelling]
Hey don't let it go to waste
I love it but I hate the taste
Weight keeping me down [x2]
[yelling]
Done done and on to the next one
Done I'm done and I'm
On to the next.

Close your eyes, so many days go by.
Easy to find what's wrong, harder to find what's right.

There is nothing like driving so fast that you can see the thin line between life and death

Some Things There Are No Words For, Only Shoulders To Lean On. Hands To Hold On To. And Hugs To Comfort You, As Best They Can.
Buttons - you make me proud.
MeaCulpa - It will never be your fault.
Everyone - Whatever you need to hear.
'Pantheon' by InMe can relate to SI...its not slow though, but its amazing! Absolutely incredible band. I'll post the lyrics...
You proved you're a force to be reckoned with.
And I'd escape my shadows in a second if...
These words stood the test of time.
I guess we can only try.
I did not want to hurt you.
So I hurt myself instead.
The scars always remind me...
Of where angels fear to tread.
let's take control of our own lives today.
Let's give our souls to these songs tonight.
And I know that you saved a life that night mate.
When you say everything will be ok they believe you.
You proved that you mean business.
The journeyman bleeds hope & they're listening.
These words stood the test of time.
Painted in the sky.
No regrets.
All my sins taught me everything.
Forgive and forget.
Live & let live & dream big.
Honest victories.
The Pride.
Reap what you sow & bath in the light.
We'll take control of our own lives
<3
*~ hold on if you feel like letting go
hold on it gets better than you know ~*
