crying shame

it's all around us
everywhere you go
to get gas, to work, tv
you hear it on the radio.


magazines selling weight loss schemes
and advertisement for a juicy steak.

a holiday for hiding behind a mask
that comes for a diet break.


bags of chemicals that will kill you
that cause obsession in your head


and every girl in my generation
will hate there size till their dead.


you'll never be perfect
like the pictures that you see
but you'll be judged and ostrasized
for only having a B


have empty calories
that leave you wanting more

stress about halloween
because you dress like a whore


if you watch what you eat
you care too much

but if you binge
you're a hoarder


and if you throw up your food
you'll die soon
of a disgusting eating disorder


you can never win in this body image game
because the rules are really fucked


too much or too little
it'll never be enough.
