SKIN AND BONES
SCRATCHING AT YOUR DOOR
WHISPERING
"DON'T EAT ANYMORE."
CUT YOUR SKIN
LET THE BLOOD RUN DRY
TEARS COVER YOUR FACE
DON'T TELL THEM WHY.
SAY YOU'RE ALRIGHT
PRETEND THAT YOU'RE FINE
ACT LIKE YOU'RE NOT DYING
DEEP DOWN INSIDE.
BE AN ACTRESS
MAKE THEM BELIEVE
THAT YOU DON'T HAVE MARKS
UNDERNEATH YOUR SLEEVES.
PEOPLE WILL REALIZE
WHEN ITS ALL TOO LATE
YOU'RE ALREADY IN YOUR CASKET
AND THEY'RE DIGGING YOUR GRAVE.
i like to rhyme i guess.
