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
