Starv yourself

You keep telling yourself stupid stories,
Your fat, not skinny, overweight,
Your legs look huge,
Your bum even bigger.

Your face is chubby,
Your stomach too large,
Your arms too flabby
And you're just too fat.

You starve yourself daily,
And throw up when you do eat.
You pretend you ate just before,
When you haven't eaten in weeks.

You want the fat to go away,
You want the bones to be seen.
You want your ribs to be noticeable
And your arms to be breakable.

You want to be a size 0
When at the moment you're a 4
But to you in the mirror
You're a size 27

Your parents they worry,
They think you're just too thin.
Your friends are just as bad
Why cant they understand you're bigger than the average man?

You get so weak you cannot move
Barely go to the bathroom alone
You need some food
But vow you wont touch it

Finally it caught up with you
And you ended up in hospital
With a tube down your nose
Your sick and you finally know it

You're lying in the hospital bed
Looking up at the ceiling
Wondering what happened to you
How it all went wrong

But now we sit without you
Thinking about what happened.
You starved yourself skinny
You starved yourself dead.
