Bite your tongueDon’t want to stay an embarrassmentjust have to stomach itThey don't know what you wantA tug of war against common sensedon’t wanna believe that I’ve oversteppedP2:But it’s so overwhelmingAnd I hope no-one can tell‘Cause the numbers keep decreasingThis ordeal is becoming routine, checkArms back neck thighs Suck it in and Pinch my sidesThe scales are betraying me, the mirror is a lie, yeahNumbersIt all comes down to numbersI know it’s wrong butJust because you know you’re colorblind doesn’t mean you can see the colorsFine, I admit I’m addictedBut the hunger feels good, how do I quit thisI know I could die, I’ve seen the statisticsBut the voice is with me through thick and thinBridge:I can reach outTo someone not like meIf you ask for help it doesn’t make you weakI can reach outignore what the voice tells meI can help my mind learn to trust my body(dave is such a nice genuine guy i appreciate all he's done to help me. thank you dave!)
