I Shouldn't Care

You ask why I care about whats on my skin

Why I care how I look, why I care if I'm thin

But you don't understand the real version of me

All the imperfections that only I see

You just see a body that's wasting away

You just see the scars that grow day by day

It's easy to say you know how I feel deep inside

But have you ever felt so disgusting you've cried?

Have you torn at your flesh 'til your stomach runs red

Have you puked up your guts 'til your throat has
bled

I know that you love me & are trying to be there

But please just don't tell me that I shouldn't care
