timeless nights spent, bent over the toilet.
she hates it, but she can't avoid it. 
spewing vomit, like an alcoholic.
heave after heave, nothing can stop it. 

counting calories took in, and calories burned. 
sitting in class, not hearing a word.
riding the treadmill; down another pound. 
not as easy to shed off, this time around. 
 
on the scale in the morning, on the scale after school.
endless hours, spent swimming laps in the pool.
snorting coke, to ease the hunger pain. 
vision blurred, it's raining, life's down the drain.

she's so far gone; running on empty.
daddy driving after her; if only she was pretty.
insomnia, she can hardly stand it.
sleeping took away the pain, if only for a minute. 

blocking out the world, they just don't understand.
too hard to stop, when you're already damned.
never listening, to mommy and daddy's commands. 
black out, falling, not feeling anything as the fatal blow
lands.
