From Within (anorexia)

Rip out my heart
I can't take the beats
Tear me apart
As I weep.

I can't stop tugging at my skin
I made a mistake
One from deep within
I have a problem I just can't shake.

Someone please help me
The fat is consuming
I can't just "be"...
Answer my problems and stop assuming.

I'm going to purge
I can't help it
The fat just won't stop the urge
I look like shit.

I look in the mirror and see my reflection
I'll never be perfect
But for now, I'm going to cut out my whole midsection
This is how I refect...

I'm fat
I can't put it any more simple
So, as you ponder on that...
I'll carve a symbol...

My disease is taking over
Anna and I are becoming one
She is I, as I am her
And to think, "we" have only just begun.

I cut at my tummy
Something you don't understand
Everything is just so fat, so lumpy
I don't need to pray, and I don't need your hand.

I'm going to starve
Just watch as my bones poke through my skin
Now I shall carve
To release my demons from within.
