Too afraid to gain a pound
So you just walk away
You live your life alone
With no one around
It's the one thing you can control
Was it the stress?
Or maybe the pressure
It made you go so far as to almost lose your soul
What you see in the mirror isn't true
In a strive for perfection
You cant see it
But they all do
You don't realize until its too late
It's just one of those things
That eventually controls you
Fills you with so much self hate
Those on the outside
Blame it all on you
Say it's your fault
They don't know all those times you cried
The constant fear of that number
What if its too high?
You can't see how it will end
In your fight against hunger
You lose so much more than just weight
Left feeling empty inside
But you haven't lost your strength
Even when it controls every choice you make
