The Fight For Perfection
Control over my life is what I seek
to no longer be unwanted
to gain the one thing i desire,
perfection
In my head lives a girl, Ana
she guides me through the hard times
she helps me against my enemy,
food
Ana is always there for me, no matter what
to advise me on the bad things
to remind me of the goal, the aim,
perfection
My reflection shows the problem areas
which show me how far i still am
which focus me on what to avoid,
food
The scales will always tell the truth
unlike the labels on food packaging
unlike the people who tell me i will never get it,
perfection
One day i will show the haters
just what i can do
just what i can be,
PERFECT
