"Dying To Be Thin"

She's dying to be thin
it's all she can think of,
convinced she'll be more attractive
and easier to love.
She sees girls on the cover
of her favorite magazine,
and she thinks they look so happy,
being beautiful and lean.

She looks in the dressing mirror
and frets over her weight,
until she goes to the bathroom
to throw up what she ate;
She's already petite
but no one can tell her that,
for in her little mind
she's nothing less than fat.

In all the music videos,
and all the shows on TV,
the girl everyone wants to be with
is thin as thin can be;
She wants to be just like her
so she weighs herself again,
Killing herself every day
just dying to be thin.
