Kent-We Need To Eat

Posted by Anna Johnston on Thursday, April 12, 2012,
She grows silent, the light falls
Does it scare you?
Does it chew you to the bone?
I'm sorry, I didn't know
Then I won't put the lights out
Though you hate to undress before my eyes
For your pale skin is in need of summerlight

I say: You need to eat
She says: I'll feed on your breath
What if I leave?
She says: Without you I'll be dead
I need some sleep
but I can't let her alone
and if I leave
I'd be afraid of coming home

She grows silent, the light falls

Cause it scares you
and I can't help b...

Pompeii-Numbers

Posted by Anna Johnston on Thursday, April 12, 2012,
Came at you in silence, my back at the wall.
"i've seen those nights where you binge and purge"
Those locks on your doors tell me when you're crouched on all fours
counting tile, losing bile and sleep.
"it's just a diet, i've kept it quiet. Even if you told all my family and
friends they would never believe it."
I think you're right. I can't believe it too
that it's you, but it's you.

My problems hide in numbers that leave when i gag and heave,
I weighed out every option, that scale's not fit for adv...

Picture Me Broken Skin and Bones

Hey dear
I fear
I'll watch you disappear
I know
You'll go
Until you're Skin and Bones

Your reflection's all you're worth

This time it's almost over
I watch you turn to dust
I know it's not much longer
Until you faint
Cause you'll never love yourself at all
Cause everything you touch will fall to pieces
This time it's almost over now

Wake up Skin and Bones (wake up)
Wake up Skin and Bones (wake up)

You're so alone
Your sickness feels like home
Find some control
Starve 'till you're beautiful

Your reflection's all ...

Faces Without Names:Deadly Beauty

Posted by Anna Johnston on Wednesday, April 4, 2012,
Story of a girl who lost her world, so she could be beautiful

Fifteen, so sweet, you’d think,
But she’s got a secret.
Made up her mind,
The day she came to find-out that he left
I Guess there’s another girl
This time blue eyes, blonde hair
She’ll do anything to catch his eye
But she knows she’ll never compare
Skips school, wont eat, can barely sleep
Takes drastic measure.
Runs seven miles a day in the sun
Wearing a sweater
She turns the radio on so no one hears what she’s doing.
Cuz she’s con...
