Doctor, doctor
I need to shed some pounds
I weigh 72 and my bones barely protrude

Doctor, doctor
I need help
I can't stop scratching myself
It's on my wrist right on my slits

Doctor, Doctor
Get the voices out of my head
They keep on shouting I'm better off dead

Doctor, Doctor
The little girl under my bed
Keeps on asking what's my favorite book I've read

What are these pills
What do they do
You say they'll make me happy
I swear if I gain a gram
You'll no longer be my friend

But doctor
When will it end
I just want to go away
I just want a friend other than myself
Maybe I'll get more some day

Doctor
I don't want to be here
To be raw,
I want to be dead
All of my friends don't treat me the same
It's like I'm insane
No matter what I do
Everybody's looks at me and thinks
What did you do
What went wrong
Was it me or is it you
They seemed so happy
They had nothing to be sad for
She was so lovely and always laughing
But I guess was before
Before the storm

Doctor

Doctor

Everyone is losing touch

Everyone is staring too much

I can't hear you

It's like I'm drowning and letting go

I want you to let everyone know

I'm going home
