Run run. 'Til fat drips off. Never slow. Never stop. Starve starve. 'Til your hands shake. And your hair falls out. And your insides ache. Binge purge. 'Til your throat burns. And your teeth chip.
Mirror mirror on the wall, I want to be pretty, skinny and tall. Mirror mirror if I change my hair, Maybe someone might start to care.
You seem so perfect on the outside. But I wonder what it must be like inside. Is your mind corrupted by your pride. So filthy with fake beauty. That you can't see what is right.

I fall asleep. To melancholy. And drip away. To the unholy. I rise up high. Into my thoughts. And drift away. To stomach knots. An emptiness. Takes over me. And pulls me to. A vacant sea.
It was cold. I was freezing. I had a few more miles to go. walking through the snow. makeup smeared from the night before. neighbors staring, "what a whore". what more can I say.
Locked in a cage with no where to escape. Breathing hard. Heartbeat beating furiously. Not knowing if you'll be alive that much longer. Slowly dying in pain. Heart is broken. Your mind is the cage.
L onging for a saviour, I 'm in need of lifting. F orlorn and in danger, E ver more just drifting. T here's something coming close, H e's there, up in the distance.

New. Newer. Less. Fewer. I'll get slimmer. Skip dinner. Be the clear winner. Thin. Thinnest. Thinner. Thinner. Always thinner. Never enough. Always too much stuff. Too many voices. Too few choices.
