Bit By Bit

Starving yourself until it hurts
You know dieting doesn't seem to ever work.
Hurting yourself from the inside to the out
This oughtta work, without a doubt.

One spinach leaf for lunch
two carrot sticks for dinner
anything low calorie
and you'll turn out like a winner.

I know people who do this to themselves.
It's hard not to even try this.
My mom works at an eating disorder clinic and
This is something my mom doesnt let me get away with.

She doesn't know that i've tried.
She doesn't know that i've purged.
But it doesn't matter
Because for what i've tried, i have learned.

Life's only so short.
Try not to care about what people are gonna say.
Everyone is differently shaped
and don't change for anyone but yourself.

Live life to the fullest
And take advantage of the food you're given
Because you could be in another country
where eating isn't considered an option.

Take life day by day my friends
and don't let self-conscienceness get in the way
because tomorrow my friend
is a completely different day.
