When I'm Skinny

When I'm skinny
They'll all see
They'll see the way
I want to be

To walk on water
to float on air
My bones will show
Oh how they'll stare

The grace, the lithe
of slender form
though layers of cloth
won't keep me warm

The sun will blaze
my skin will freeze
My bones will crack
and weaken my knees

My hair will dull
my eyes grow dim
Beauty is pain
the price of slim

Though darkness looms
Over my head
I cannot rest
Can't sleep in my bed

The pain it rises
takes over me
all for a vain
want to be skinny
