DOWN TO THE BONE

Maya Anjur

I feel so weak and broken
Pit in my stomach's growin'
At night I lock the door and
I let it all pour out

When I look in the mirror, not what you see in pictures
Don't meet the beauty standard, society's killing me

Searching for validation, resort to deprivation
To satisfy my cravings, will this make you want me
You tell me I look different, don't ask me how I did it
My body's been through hell, it's not a secret

Your words are my suppressant, I tried my best to hide it
My confidence is buried six feet under
Light as a feather, stiff as a board
Don't see a difference in how I look

Nothing inside, I barely survive
I'll take the knife and carve me down to the bone
The bane of my existence
Falling for self-destruction, a poisonous addiction

Has taken over me
Don't think that I deserve it
Convinced I have to earn it
My life ain't got no purpose
Unless there's less of me
Light as a feather, stiff as a board

Don't see a difference in how I look
Nothing inside, I barely survive
I'll take the knife and carve me down to the bone
Carve me down to the bone

I feel so weak and broken
Pit in my stomach's growin'
At night I lock the door and
I let it all pour out
I'll take the knife and carve me down to the bone
