Months go by and I start to notice
My arms grow bigger and my belly so bloated
My standards start to go higher and higher
People with compliments just seem like liars
I eat less and less, just be depressed
Purge that out before you digest
Take note of all the calories
Put all those numbers in your diary
You feeling hungry? Then chew some gum
To this you know you will succumb
Just hide that depression and hide all your thoughts
Give hunger and purging a little shot
See how good you will feel
When your waist start to thin
You can skip every meal, your hunger, just conceal
Just stop when you see you're all bone and skin
Don't stop. Don't stop. Don't stop.
Don't stop. Don't stop. Don't stop.
Don't stop. Don't stop. Don't stop.
Don't stop.Don't stop. JUST STOP.
Why am I like this? My mind can't accept this
body that I have isn't as pretty as the rest of them
Why can't I just love myself? Why is it so hard
to talk to people, I don't want them to feel off guard
My problems are so petty,
Depression isn't pretty,
as I start to develop major problems that are deadly
I can't really stop this, someone please come up and help me
My mind and heart and body and state is very very messy.
