Discover the story of the song > Anorexia – Iron Curtain

The song is about someone who is struggling with an eating disorder called anorexia. They feel lonely and misunderstood because no one listens to them when they try to explain what they're going through. They see pictures of happy people and it makes them angry because they feel like they don't fit the same ideal. Despite their achievements in school, they still feel alone and depressed. They stop eating and think that it will make them feel better, but it only makes them sadder. Their parents are scared for them and wonder what they did wrong. The person is still a virgin and intact, but they have hurt themselves by not eating enough.
