Thin
Beauty is not something that comes from within
beauty is something that so-called comes when you're thin
thin enough where you can barely stand
and for what, to impress a foolish man?
Arms like twigs make you nice and pretty
the skinniest girl in all the city
food is wicked and never your friend
Willpower to starve is a lifestyle
And not a trend
It doesn't matter if your eyes sink into your skull
At least you're slim, and not fat and dull
Your stomach is an empty shell
And your body is still
A living hell.
