Sorry you had to go through this alone
I'm never leaving you from now on
I'll remind you everyday that you're pretty
Because nobody was saying that to me

Scarring your body isn't a metaphor
Starving your body and in horror
Staring at your body I will break the mirror

You will then see
What I call beauty
Which we can only find
When we become blind

The truth beneath our skin
The shields of our souls
The shell which is hiding
Our one and only jewel
That you will find if you follow
The way of your blood vessels

Do not fret
You won't get
Less pretty if you eat
More happy you will be
Go on and trust me
I'll hold your hand while
Your best you try
Now you can see
That the shield of your soul
Is your own body
