I haven't been honest,
I'm at war.
A war with no treaty.
A war I fight alone.

I have a confession,
Before you judge
hear me out.
I'm a prisoner of war.
Depression my captor.

Crimson regret bled out.
I am broken I can't move.
My heart crushed.
A fake smile my shield.

I haven't been honest,
Bulimia tortured me.
My body I dispised.
You wont understand.
Your painful words
Break me.

Before you judge
Listen,
I'm a slave with raw hands.
I'm in love with my sorrow.

My veins pour out,
Crimson regret.
You wont understand.
Depression not beautiful
I'm in an unending hell.

I haven't been honest,
I have a confession,
I cry alone at night
Silent cry unheard.

How the **** can you judge?
You don't know me *****.

Now I'm stronger
I'm better than depression.
My scars
A memorial
Remembrance of things past.

Look both ways *****
I'll run you the **** over!
I won't fall this time.

To the girl that slits her wrists
Time to rise.

To the girl that purges.
an attempt to gain
Beauty
Time to rise.

To those fighting
The same war
As I have

Time to rise.
We will rise together.
Our voices will be heard.

We will not be silenced
We will scream
A chant of hope
starts with you and me.
