Rubbing the morning sleep from my eyes
it's just another day
Where will I find the energy
to make it through
another day
My body is weak, tired...
With every ounce of strength I lift my legs off the bed
They are heavy, it's getting harder to stand
This is nothing new
it's just another day
I step on the scale, fear bubbling within me
This one moment could control my mind for the entire day
Double digits!  Yes, I'm ok!  ...at least for just another day
When I look in the mirror, what do I see
The sad, overweight 10 year old girl, gazing back at me
How do I get her out of the mirror?
If I just don't eat, for another day....
will this girl in the mirror
finally go away?
