I Almost Died When I Saw You Thinner (Trigger Warning)

 


I Almost Died When I Saw You Thinner

This is another song I got from a dream - or, I mean, the very first part of it came from a dream. It's about seeing someone for the first time in a while, and them being a lot skinnier than they used to be. Like, did they get skinny because they're dieting? Or is it cuz they're dying? I put a trigger warning on this one, cuz it might trigger bad memories for people who've lost loved ones due to some terminal illness that made them lose weight.

The lyrics are:

I almost died when I saw you thinner
I almost died when I saw you thinner

I said, “Oh, balls”
It is not natural
I said, “Oh, balls”
It is not natural

And you have gotten very thin, I see
I don't know why you got so skinny

I said, “Oh, balls”
It is not natural
I said, “Oh, balls”
It is not natural

Maybe, you should go to a doctor
If you do, I think you should talk to her
About the skinniness you are having
Unless it is because you are fasting
You don't want to be this skinny, no
Not the the point where your ribs start to show
Our culture sez that skinniness is great
But it could be foretelling a bad fate

I hope this is not because you are dying
If that's the case I will soon be crying

I said, “Oh, balls”
This is not natural
I said, “Oh, balls”
This is not natural


Here's the alternative player thingy, in case you'd rather use it than the one up top:
