It looks at me

Glistening in fat

I can see the numbers

Of calories and that



I want to eat it

But I can’t

Won’t let myself fall

I can’t



Need to be pretty

Need to be thin

So I cant feel

The pain deep within



Want to die

Slowly fade away

So I don’t have to hurt

For another day



Must burn it off

Must get it out

Otherwise I’ll be fat

Without a doubt



The pain in my stomach

The hunger calls

But the numbers

Quickly fall



I’m not there yet

So can’t give up

Must keep going

Won’t give up



Until I’m thin

Until the fats gone

Until I can feel the bones

And what I’ve done



Must have control

When everything breaks

It’s my choice

And I’ll do what it takes



To be pretty and skinny

To be thin and pure

And to get there

This is the pain I must endure
