    Story Behind the Song
    This song was inspired by my good friend, who used to cut herself. She has 50 scars on just one arm.

    Lyrics
    Here lies a broken girl, who liked to lick her wounds
    Here lies the broken dreams which were promised to her
    Here is the place where she found comfort in herself
    Here is the heart that she gave to no one else

    What did you tell her?
    You told her that her eyes would never see
    What did you say to her?
    When she couldn't stop cutting?

    Lydia, Lydia had her filling
    Oh Lydia, she doesn't know what she's missing

    Can't go to your mother
    You have no father
    So you turn to your hunger
    And watch yourself slip from the night

    This is your secret
    Can't tell anyone about it
    You smile as the blood drips down your arm

    Every little scar you make is like giving birth to a new child
    Every little drop of blood makes you smile
    Happiness in the knife

    Lydia, Lydia had her filling
    Oh Lydia, she doesn't know what she's missing

    She turns to me and says,
    "Sometimes living in the shadow
    of a false hope is better than nothing
    And someday you'll wake up and realize
    That you're just a person."

    Lydia, Lydia had her filling
    Oh Lydia, she doesn't know what she's missing

    Lydia, Lydia has no feelings
    Lydia, she doesn't know that she's dying.
