Then get up and [C] be it, fighting for the smallest [Dm] goal to gain a little self [A]-control.
Won't anybody here [Dm] just let you disappear?
[Am] Not doctors, no, your mom and [D] dad, but me and me and Anna and Anna.
[A] Know how hard you try, [D] don't you see it in my eyes?
[C] Sick to death of my [Dm] dependence, finding food to find [Am] transcendence.
