We step on the scale To weigh ourselves Yet find the scale Offers no help When the scale itself Can never tell How we feel About ourselves Or how well We have dealt In the realm Of self help Makes you wonder how It controls the crowds When on the scale To weigh ourselves

Weight of the Situation
We step on the scale To weigh ourselves Yet find the scale Offers no help When the scale itself Can never tell How we feel About ourselves Or how well We have dealt In the realm Of self help Makes you wonder how It controls the crowds When on the scale To weigh ourselves
