Little bite, chew.
Little bite, chew.
That's what grandma taught me
When I was a child,
Little bite, chew.
That’s what I must do.
Little bite, chew.
That’s the only way to get over you.
Little bite, chew.
Little bite, chew.
Keep it down,
Don’t make yourself spew,
Soon she won’t be whispering to you.
Soon she’ll leave and I’ll be through.
Just listen to grandma and
Little bite, chew.
Mirrors are the worst forgivers,
But they’re in league you see.
The fact you now know that their friendship grows
Is only a good thing for me.
Veins subside, bones find shelter,
She will dwindle and hide.
But I get scared if it rains again,
She’ll be by my side.
Little bite, chew.
Little bite, chew.
It’s going to be long but
Little bite, chew.
One way or another I’ll leave you
Just listen to grandma and
Little bite, chew.
The damage will stay.
The damage is done,
The damage done by you.
I don’t need you,
I’ll never forget you,
ANA.
There’s something I must do.
It takes just one deep breath,
Just one mouthful,
And just one
Little bite, chew.
