Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

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

|-/7-5-4-0-

My problems hide in numbers that leave when I gag and heave

I weighed out every option, that scale's not fit for advice

Medical language won't ever help to shape this if that

mind is just as frail as it's frame you know I'd leave it alone

We can beat genetics, adopting new aesthetics for beautiful bodies

Figures ever-so-slender

Taking control, oh. Oh, what a nice, nice thing.

Besides, my problems hide in numbers that leave when I gag and heave

And heaving's kind of hard with your hands tied round your waist

Point out the obvious, tell me how dangerous

Then bundle every fight in an "isn't right" and leave it alone

Outro section

Alternate between A5 and B5 for one bar each, and then when the cello comes in,

between playing E and A for two bars each.
