Get in Hell
I have to be out in the world and I don't understand,
Why can't anyone lend a helping hand?
Do they not see my hands?
Can they not tell that I have it bad?
I'm literally dying before them but they don't care,
As long as I lose the few pounds that they said I should shed and style my hair.
Humanity is disgusting and somebody needs to show them up,
How is it that I'm less important because I have a little bit of gut?
My face is round not slender and as such I deserve to be treated like a peasant in these modern times.
My body is mine but I don't control how it grows or where it goes,
And how it looks shouldn't determine how important I am.
Sometimes I wish I could cut all the fat off and walk around with my bones hanging because that's the only way I'd be considered "banging".
I don't want this to be my life forever,
I wonder if I pray for death this time it will find its way to me sooner.
This life is worse than death itself,
So, I guess happiness is something I'll get in hell.
