A Song I Wrote
About sobriety and eating disorders
Where did your body go
When your mind jumped ship
Did it keep moving forward
When you loosened your grip?
Where did your body go
When your heart disembarked
When it tried to get through to you
Did you let it starve?
Think you’re better than you used to be
When you drank all your dinners
And called yourself free
Broke out of the cage and
Found a new set of bars
From the inside of this one
Lord you can’t see the stars
You’ve read all the books
And you’ve spilled all the tea
You’ve stopped drawing your sorrows
In the red roiling sea
Lord it’s not in the pages
And it’s not in this song
The answers you’re looking for
Were inside all along…
Think you’re better than you used to be
When you drank all your dinners
And called yourself free
Broke out of the cage and
Found a new set of bars
From the inside of this one
Lord you can’t see the stars
