This song is not about literally cutting one's self. there are emotional scars. I don't see where people are getting the cutting from, though I understand that it's a serious problem.

I agree with rhcpf12 and other people that argeeed with rhcpf12. It's partially about people like drummerchick, "try to comprehend that which you'll never comprehend" the people that don't take the time to really understand where other people's emotional pain is coming from. To feel the emotional pain their suffering, to empathize with them "hey baby can you bleed like me."

i see what you mean about the emotional scars, but it literally does say "doodle takes dad's scissors to her skin, and when she does relief comes setting in." which is literally talking about a cutter. but i definitely do not disagree with you about what you have said about the emotional scars. i just wanted to point out that the song DOES talk about cutting.
