For anyone who cares, I am not okay

I never thought I could ever end up this way

I've cried and I've lied, fought so long

An impossible battle that always goes wrong

My head pounds and my chest beats faster

To all the outsiders I'm a walking disaster

See all my bones poking from my skin

It started out so innocently, I just wanted to be thin

But I was overtaken, the disease, she invaded

So easily slipping into a person that I hated

How it all happened no one could see

She moved so quickly and now she lives in me

She was so lonely, looking to wage war

But I was so depressed and needed her more

That day in time, I learned my fate

The years to follow, my biggest mistake

She had lived alone and now lives in me

Holds me in chains, no longer free
