i told another lie today,

and i got through this day, no one saw through my games.

i know the right words to say,

like "i don't feel well", "i ate before i came."

then someone tells me how good i look,

and for a moment; for a moment, i am happy.

but when i'm alone, no one hears me cry.

i need you to know, i'm not through the night,

some days i'm still fighting to walk towards the light.

i need you to know, that we'll be okay,

together we can make it through another day.

i don't know the first time i felt unbeautiful,

the day i chose not to eat.

what i do know is how it changed my life forever

- i know, i should know better.

there are days, when i'm okay, and for a moment;

for a moment, i am happy.

but when i'm alone... no one hears me cry.

bulimie und anorexie (magersucht)

sind erstzunehmende krankheiten.

wenn irgendjemand in deinem umfeld

daran erkrankt, solltest du um jeden

preis versuchen, zu helfen,

denn wer weiß, irgendwann

könnte es zu spät sein.
