A gap between her thighs And hips that protrude Counting each rib, as if there's something left to prove Relying on caffeine, alcohol and more Losing out on life, passing every open door Crying in the dark, alone next to the scale It reminds you of your worth and how you always fail Counting everyday, worried all the time Can I hit a goal, will I meet the deadline Wishing you were different, praying to be small And finally when you get there, your problems will be solved

Skinny
A gap between her thighs And hips that protrude Counting each rib, as if there's something left to prove Relying on caffeine, alcohol and more Losing out on life, passing every open door Crying in the dark, alone next to the scale It reminds you of your worth and how you always fail Counting everyday, worried all the time Can I hit a goal, will I meet the deadline Wishing you were different, praying to be small And finally when you get there, your problems will be solved
