Yea, I guess you could say it hurts at first,

But the pain quickly eases.

Before you know it blood is pouring out of your veins,

Just trickling off your arm, then you go numb.

All your feeling is gone.

And for a second you have a slight smile slip across your face,

But then you close your eyes and finally slip away.
