She's Falling Apart- Lisa Loeb

They pull up their chairs to the table
She stares at the food on her plate
At the toast and the butter
Her father, her mother, she pushes away
And they rise in the morning
And they sleep in the dark
And even though nobody's looking
She's falling apart
She gets home from school too early
And closes the door to her room
There's nothing inside her
She's weak and she's tired of feeling like this
And they rise in the morning
And they sleep in the dark
And even though nobody's looking
She's falling apart
They call her for dinner, she makes up a reason
She looks at her arms and she rolls down her sleeves
And her mother is starting to see through her lies
And last night her father had tears in his eyes
And they rise in the morning
And they sleep in the dark
And even though nobody's looking
She's falling apart
And we rise in the morning
And we sleep in the dark
And even though nobody's looking
She's falling apart

Starving For Attention- Geri Karlstronm
 
Bones are beautiful
My drug of choice
Striving for perfection
And I'm driven to
Run to you
In the wrong direction
How does that make you feel?
Why can't I make you see?

Mom and Daddy look
It's your little girl
Starving for attention
Too much on my plate
Things that I can't face
Starving for attention

I can't be myself
The mirror tells
Lies and says I'm ugly
Am I really here?
I cut my skin
It takes a knife to find me
I can't make me feel
So now I have to bleed

Mom and Daddy look
It's your little girl
Starving for attention
Too much on my plate
Things that I can't face
Starving for attention

Hungry empty
Lost in her pain
She can't tell you
So she slowly fades away

Mom and Daddy look
It's your little girl
Dying for attention
Too much on her plate
Things that she can't face
Starving for attention
Craving your attention
She's dying for your attention

 
Ana's Song- Silverchair
 
Please die Ana
For as long as you're here we're not
You make the sound of laughter
And sharpened nails seem softer

And I need you now somehow
And I need you now somehow

Open fire on the needs designed on my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires what I need from you

Imagine pageant
In my head the flesh seems thicker
Sandpaper tears corrode the film
And I need you now somehow
And I need you now somehow

Open fire on the needs designed on my knees for you
Open fire on my knees desires what I need from you

And your my obsession
I love you to the bones
And Ana wrecks your life
Like an anorexia life

Open fire on the need designed on my knees for you....

Open fire on my knees desires what I need from you
Open fire on my needs designed
Oh, and
Open fire on the needs designed on my knees for you

Skinny- Filter
 
So here you are in your small little world
Kept up like a little precious virgin girl
To hear 'bout your grace and your silly face
Wrapped up like a knot in a ball of shoelace
And everytime I talk to you
It sounds like you're caught in a psychological flu
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't' Ever let them see you bleed
Don't Ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
Skinny And it will make you cry
Skinny
And it will make you lie
Skinny
And if it makes you soft inside
Skinny At least you will not die
 
And if you take a good look at them
All caught up in their graciousless win
Every sin is their seamless smile
Will go on for a countless while
And just because they think they won
It just means that the shit has just begun
 
Don't ever let them see you cheat
Don't ever let them see you beat
Donn't ever let them shake your hand
Don't ever let them believe that scam
 
Skinny And it will make you cry
Skinny
And it will make you lie
Skinny
And if it makes you soft inside
Skinny At least you will not die...
Yeah, skinny, skinny, huh
 

Anorexic Beauty- Pulp
 
Sitting alone on a cold bar stool, your cold, hard eyes make me feel a fool. Pastel-white features, high cheekbones, scarlet-blooded lips and deathly tones. The girl of my nightmares, sultry and corpse-like. The girl of my nightmares. Brittle fingers, and thin cigarettes, so hard to tell apart, (she hasn't spoken yet.) You put your hand on mine, death white on brown, those whirlpool eyes; well, I begin to drown. The girl of my nightmares, erotic and skull-faced. The girl of my nightmares. Anorexic beauty, feather-weight perfection, anorexic beauty, underweight goddess. Sitting alone on a cold bar stool, your so hard to tell apart, (she hasn't spoken yet.) Pastel-white features, high cheek- bones, scarlet-blooded lips and deathly tones. The girl of my nightmares, sultry and corpse-like. The girl of my nightmares. Anorexic beauty, feather-weight perfection, anorexic beauty, underweight goddess.

"And I don't want the world to see me, 'cause I don't think that you'd understand... When everything feels like the movies, you bleed just to know
you're alive..." ~ Goo Goo Dolls

"An ordinary girl, an ordinary waist, but ordinary's not good enough today. She's trying so hard, it doesn't seem right, to battle like this and still lose the fight." ~ Our Lady Peace

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder,
maybe fatness is in the mind's eye of the beholden
