Barely eating Won't admit to the hunger I feel Tell you I already ate That I'll buy some food later Don't know what it is Why it is I'm not overweight Don't hate being so skinny Yet still I won't eat My stomach so foreign to the concept For although it's not my weight I'm still delighted by the flatness of my skin The fall of weight on those scales I don't know the truth anymore Can't make sense of the mess I'm in Don't know if secrets are good or bad I'm scared You don't suspect a thing Making it so easy to waste away I feel sick at the smell of food And I just want to run Forwards, backwards, I can't tell Barely eating I never understood the real me Never thought I could despise what my stomach so desperately needs

Food
Barely eating Won't admit to the hunger I feel Tell you I already ate That I'll buy some food later Don't know what it is Why it is I'm not overweight Don't hate being so skinny Yet still I won't eat My stomach so foreign to the concept For although it's not my weight I'm still delighted by the flatness of my skin The fall of weight on those scales I don't know the truth anymore Can't make sense of the mess I'm in Don't know if secrets are good or bad I'm scared You don't suspect a thing Making it so easy to waste away I feel sick at the smell of food And I just want to run Forwards, backwards, I can't tell Barely eating I never understood the real me Never thought I could despise what my stomach so desperately needs
