Scales

I watch the numbers on the scale go up, up,up
100,120,140
My jeans to tight
Suffocate the pain
Up up up the scale my greatest enemy
Thighs to big
Hips to wide
I just want to be skinny
Pretty like the girls on tv
Skinny is what a man likes
Up up up the scale my greatest weakness
The mirror never lies
Disgusted by the weight
up up up the scale tears me down
I just want to be skinny
Spending my days in sweats and big shirts
Don't want to see myself in the mirror
It brings me to tears as the scale goes up up up
