The Haunting Voices
Sometimes you come back to haunt me
And I smile at your return
I know I should beat you out of my mind
You tear my mind in two
And make me not know what to do
I love it when you help me not to eat
You reassure me that i am ok, I am happy
But then you let the other voice come, that lets me eat
eat eat eat eat and eat
why do you not stop it?
eat eat eat and eat
eat eat eat and eat
eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat and eat
and eat and eat and eat and eat
STOP!!!!
It is not wise to let either of you rule me
You are not me
I am me
If i want to have a meal in peace then I will
Leave me alone, go away, I do not want you anymore
But I do, I want you to smother me in your love,
Help me achieve what I want to achieve
I'm so confused, you are so near and I like it
You are so far and I like it
It is best if you stay away,
i can be healthier that way,
stay away and leave me alone
To get on and LIVE LIFE
