Because I'm broken
Yet, I'm going to be fixed
The real question is... Do I want to be?
I've held onto problems, trying to pretend they weren't there
Digging myself an even deeper hole
To a point where it's almost impossible to get out
...
I can't shrug off reality forever
I can't always be fine...
Unless fine is in the ground
Six
  Feet
    down
I've wanted to end it... one swipe or pop and it'd be over...
But I could never do that to the ones who've
   Been my rock
      Held me up
         Threw away my poison's
           Took on my sorrows
             Made me smile
                Gave me hope
I AM getting better for them
I WILL leave for them
And when I'm through, I'll walk out smiling...
...
I am NOT an eating disorder.
I'm just a girl who has one
I've made up my mind...
I will win.
