Harder Than I Thought

All it needs is a simple number

 To trigger the pain

It awakes from its slumber

 It takes over my brain

 

To trigger the pain

 It's not a difficult task

 It takes over my brain

Maybe the smile is just a mask

 

 It's not a difficult task

To not eat for a meal or two

 Maybe the smile is just a mask

 i thought recovery would be an easy thing to do

 

 To not eat for a meal or two

 It awakes from its slumber

 I thought recovery would be an easy thing to do

All it needs is a simple number
