Anorexia + Other Body Image Quotes

Pound by pound
Look at yourself you fat ass
You need to lose some weight
A thin, beautiful, perfect child
I will help you create
First we'll start with one pound
And by the time that's through
It can't possibly be enough
So we'll push for two
The two pounds come and go
But your still not please with what you see
So then I'll whisper in your ear
"Hey lets shoot for three"
Pound after pound you will shed
But yet you yearn for more
So what the harm I say
Our next goal four
Over the time you'll get addicted
For will turn to eight
And so you'll keep on losing
As you fuss about your weight
You look in the mirror and are unpleased
With the fat protruding your skin
Eight turns to sixteen
You just want to be thin
Oh hold on now you're getting sick
But you don't give a damn
Because now your truly obsessed
You're scared of gaining just one gram
And by now you've lost 50 pounds
And you want to double that
But you don't see your getting deathly thin
You're the opposite of fat
But you don't see it
So you say "a couple more pounds, just a few"
And not that much further on
This disease has killed you
So people go to your funeral
And they cry as they play that lost song
And I'm just standing there smirking
Don't you see that was my plan along
