~You're too fat~
She steps on the scale
Hurt by the numbers
Her saving grace
Is her weight loss pills
She throws up all she ate
Everyday she feels weaker
She looks in the mirror
I'm a little bit slimmer
She dares to hope
Maybe she'll finally leave me alone
~You're too skinny~
She steps on the scale
Hurt by the numbers
No matter what she takes
Weight gain eludes her
Then she sees this girl
Thick like she wants to be
Anger fills her heart
I wish I was like her
So with her words, she destroys her
Maybe I'll be a bit more happy
Love yourself girl, or nobody else will.
