lyrics:
sometimes i eat sleep for dinner
chew my food and spit it out
gluttony lord forgive her
savory turns poison in my mouth
how can something meant to keep you alive
keep you from living
all I do is think about what goes in my mouth
if it should go in and how
i can get it out
oh i’ve had my ups
but i’m going down
i’m screaming i’m screaming
i need some help
i can’t get better
i don’t know how
when all i do is think about
what goes in my mouth
what goes in my mouth
sometimes i eat sleep for dinner
drown the hunger in my bed
one skipped meal away from thinner
and i’m five away from looking like the girl in my head (do i, do i?)
how can something meant to keep you alive
keep you from living
all i do is think about what goes in my mouth
if it should go in and how i can get it out
i’ve had my ups
but i’m going down
i’m screaming i’m screaming
i need some help
i can’t get better
i don’t know how
when all i do is think about
what goes in my mouth
what goes in my mouth
it’s my only hobby
counting every calorie
it started innocent
but i think it’s killing me
swear that i’ve tried stopping
but i can be so mean
when it gets real bad
i just go to sleep
sometimes i eat sleep for dinner
sleep for dinner

so this ruined my whole summer bella
hey bella love ur music can you just hit me with a brick next time it'd hurt less! ok thanks love u bye
Actually might cry
as a teenage boy struggling with eating problems.. this one hit way too deep than it needed to. Bella, you truly never fail to amaze us how beautifully personal and down to earth songs of yours are written and produced.
Sending so much love, and to anyone struggling, we will heal <3
I feel unwell this one is soooo beautiful 💗
See, this is what we need…a person who can understand what all of us are going through..and express through the passion for music…❤❤😭💔
I genuinely cried listening to this song. It describes exactly how it feels to struggle with an ed and not knowing how to change but not necessarily wanting to get better.
This genuinely made me cry
not me over here cryinggg
okay well now im crying…
LYRICS!!
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I eat sleep for dinner, hmm
Chew my food and spit it out, oh
Gluttony, Lord, forgive her
Savory turns poison in my mouth
[Pre-Chorus]
How can something meant to keep you alive
Keep you from living?
[Chorus]
All I do is think about what goes in my mouth
If it should go in and how I can get it out
Oh, I've had my ups, but I'm going down
I'm screaming, I'm screaming, I need some help
I can't get better, I don't know how
When all I do is think about
What goes in my mouth
What goes in my mouth
Drown the hunger in my bed (Oh), oh
One skipped meal away from thinner
And I'm five away from looking like the girl in my head (Do I? Do I?)
[Pre-Chorus]
How can something meant to keep you alive
Keep you from living?
[Chorus]
All I do is think about what goes in my mouth
If it should go in and how I can get it out
Oh, I've had my ups, but I'm going down (Going down)
I'm screaming, I'm screaming, I need some help
I can't get better, I don't know how (I don't know how)
When all I do is think about (I don't know, I don't know how)
What goes in my mouth
What goes in my mouth
[Verse 3]
It's my only hobby, counting every calorie
It started innocent, but I think it's killing me
Swear that I've tried stopping, but I can be so mean
When it gets real bad, I just go to sleep
[Outro]
Sometimes I eat sleep for dinner
Sleep for dinner
sleep for dinner.
