Verse 1
Arms feel heavy, skin still raw,
The marks are fading, but I want more.
A pull I can’t shake, a fire inside,
I tell myself no, but it won’t subside.
Verse 2
Quiet moments, I try to rest,
The urge creeps in, I can’t protest.
Hands move before my mind can speak,
The relief is hollow, the silence bleak.
Chorus 1
It rises, it fades, then comes again,
A storm inside I can’t contain.
Arms may heal, but the feeling stays,
A storm that follows me all my days.
Verse 3
I lie in bed, trying to sleep,
The itch returns, it digs in deep.
Every scar a story, every scratch a lie,
I fight the feeling, but I can’t deny.
Chorus 2
It’s back again, this need I hate,
The itch won’t leave, it decides my fate.
Relief is fleeting, but the fire stays,
A cycle I can’t break, it haunts my days.
Bridge
I tell myself no, I tell myself stop,
The craving’s endless, it won’t drop.
Temporary calm, then the need returns,
A loop of pain, the way it burns.
Chorus 3 / Outro
It rises, it fades, then comes again,
Arms may heal, but the scars remain.
The cycle returns, the itch persists,
A quiet war that leaves its prints.
