Analysis of I still lack to this day
Tracey Stock 1963 (Germany)
I knew who you were when I was very young
I felt the lack of love knocking at my door
Lonely wasn't the world I lived in
it was just called despair and pain
Razors ripping, blood dripping,
they call it self abuse
I call it love and its loved me my whole life
59 years on this earth and I am still loving myself this way
Cutting, biting and bleeding is just another day.
