Skin and Bone

[CRNDLSM]

*Please bear with me if lyrics/raps are not allowed, just thought about giving it a try. Most do say poems can be read in the melody of a song, so why not post one? It's also a WIP for the moment*

- v e r s e   1 - I was expecting more verses
Turn the knob,
Water flow
Fuck it all,
Watch me go
Turn the knob,
Water flow
Fuck it all,
Watch me go Sounds like a mantra in the shower, but could mean anything, 
Is this what we've come to?
A depressing population
Craving domination 
This is what we've come to
You only order waters
Small salad or appetizer population eating light metaphorically? Cause obesitys pretty big 
I offer the food on my plate 'cause you need it
You say you're on diet, bullshit
Your heart is too heavy to hold in, so much so you sleep in
Now you're always sleeping
Too tired to even eat eating lightly cause their tired ahh
Some days you even struggle to get the straw in 
I can't watch this, it's not something I can beat
You're sick inside, and there's no place for you to hide
I thought it was all in your mind is it still a metaphor?
So I tried to get it clear
But breakfast, lunch, and dinner
There needs to be a water near
And that's even if you're hungry 
You say, "baby if you love me
Then stop all this worry" anorexia is awful, ketosis 
Honey, I can't simply just be happy
When the love of your life dying 
In your hands
I dreamed we'd be in distant lands
I couldn't see you in my dreams
I don't know what that means
Were you dead? Were you home? This line does nothing for me
Thirsty is your new hungry 
And you're always telling me
"Baby I'm so thirsty
Can you fetch another bottle"
I don't mean to be mean
But you could use this snack as well
You ask me if your beautiful 
I'm quiet tough spot, you don't want to encourage unhealthy behavior

- p r e   c h o r u s -
Don't you dare say you're not pretty enough 
Don't tell me I do this blind in love careful with pronouns, consistency is key
Don't you dare say that you're of
A species, of a race of nothing but interesting spat

- c h o r u s -
Skin and bone 
I am nothing to behold
I have nothing left, nothing left
Look at what you've done to me
Skin and bone is all I'll ever be
There's so little for you to see
Nothing left, nothing left sad and one sided, but what isnt?

All the wire has run too dry, your brain has taken it's time of leave
Your thoughts are mixed up, you say skinny is the new pretty
Everything that you did, you've done, is now hidden up your sleeve
This is not who you're supposed be
Skinny is the new pretty takes away from the universality of this last block, without it, you could open a second verse about other things in a similar vein.

Hope this helps
