Ana Says...

Feeling the tug, a little more forceful every time
How could I have forgotten...my soul's no longer mine
She has it all, holding it tightly in her choking grasp
Never would have guessed that she'd destroy me so fast

With every pound gained, she's laughing in my face
Whispering in my ear, telling me I'm a worthless disgrace
Trying so hard to ignore her cruel taunts and jibes
But untold pain she causes is to difficult to hide

Thought she'd let me go, how could I be so naive
To be free of her hold is something I'll never achieve
Though I keep struggling to hold on every day
It's becoming more difficult for me to keep her away

Every time I gaze in the mirror at my reflection
She's whispering don't you want to reach perfection
Only I can help you do that, you know that I'm right
Stop resisting, for there's no need to fight

Can feel my resolve slowly starting to slip away
Becoming harder and harder to get through each day
Know that sooner or later, I'm going to submit
For slowly but surely she's crushing my spirit

How stupid must I have been to fall for her allure
Tell me, how much more pain is left to endure?
Now it's become a constant battle, just to eat
Already thinking up excuses, living in deceit

Will I ever beat her, that's become unknown
For she's refusing to go, she wont leave me alone
No longer wanting breakfast, lunch or dinner
She's telling me, honey you've got to be thinner
