A song about self loathing and battling an eating disorder
lyrics
Mourning Sickness
At seventeen, I killed the teenage dream
Take what you want, but leave your sympathy
I hate the world, and the world it detests me
I’ll write a line before I have to leave
Hate...Me...Now
It’s so cold for you to lie
But I kind of like it
I can’t breathe or eat and I
I feel I’m dying
Hardest of hearts, has the weakest of frames
But yet it’s such an enjoyable headache
I don’t reflect the way I feel I should
I’m sick and tired; I’ve shut down on myself
