Although it is unclear what exactly this song means, I mean it means something different to everyone. To me, it speaks so clearly to my bulimia. I have dealt with this for so long, anyway that’s not the point. “Did you expect it all to stop at the wave of your hand? Like the sun is just going to drop if it’s night you demand” That is almost word for word what people tell me, when I talk about my eating disorder. And it speaks so true, anyone who has an obsession or an addiction can understand, because you did. You really didn’t think this monster would rule you. “Well, in the dark we are just air so the house might dissolve But once we are gone, who is gonna care if we were ever here at all? “ This might be the death of you, but you don’t care, and you’re pretty sure no one else should care either. You believe no one cares about you. It really seems that way. “Well, summer is going to come and it’s gonna cloud our eyes again” Summer is a time, for me at least when my ED is not so bad. I’m so distracted hat it’s almost gone. “There is no need to focus when there is nothing that it worth seeing” Who can focus on recover, I mean it’s won’t be worth t. “So we trade liquor for blood in an attempt to tip the scales” I DON’T do it personally, but online I have met plenty of people who drink to a lot so they puke to lose weight. “I think you lost what you loved in that mess of details” Obviously, it is so true. “They seemed so important at the time but now you can’t even recall” The reasons why you started all of this. “Any of the names, faces, or lines, it is more the feeling of it all Well, winter is going to end and I’m going to clean these veins again” Summer comes, it’s all over for a while. “So close to dying that I finally can start living” This defines eating disorders. |
