Starving to Survive

She covers the scars on her arms so well


Hiding the evidence of her own private Hell

The feeling of blood is still crawling on her skin

And her fingers are down her throat to make herself thin

These voices are coming around again

The voices that caused all of the pain

Her parents don’t notice, she cries by herself

Willing herself to get better in the name of her health

The blood drips from every pierced vein in her arm

She doesn’t see that she has a problem, she doesn’t see the harm

These voices are coming around again

The voices that cause her pain

Her body is decaying, it’s just wasting away

She doesn’t see the harm or how the voices betray

She’s not hurting anymore because it just feels so right

She’s too weak to eat, but too hungry to fight

These voices are coming around again

The voices that cause her pain

Her veins are broken, her flesh is raw

It’s too late; she’s slumped over on the floor

Her fingers in her throat, razor blade at her side

The day when her heart and problems collide

The voices in her head becoming more and more evil

She’s been heading here for so long, on this downward spiral

These voices are coming around again

The voices that caused her pain

The voices are back for more

It’s too late; she lies dead on the floor.
