Dead Weight

58 lines2 min listen
By Faith CheltenhamYou are who youHang aroundAnd I use to chillwith absolute fucking losersAll offense sent
Don’t anymore, and I’m nowdown almost 400 poundsNo hanging with addictsSelf hating sex freaksStranger danger attractorsAnxiety whores too
And no more let’s go out to eatWhy when we could walk and talk?Why when the sky is so bright?And the wind feels so goodcrisp against skin
Why ever be inside, sitting?Drinking drinks with iceHow boring, and entirely dynasticI’m here for the work and the lifeI’m here to get up from the tableAnd stay where the living isWhere the breathing isn’t heavyAnd the sighs are often from prettyNot from too plenty
Cast off dead weightsWherever you canKnowing they knew it tooYou were always too goodFor a life lived so little
That’s why skinnies get madAbout weight loss pensIt’s not the heavy they want you to loseThey want the heavyto keep you their fat friend
They want the heaviesto be losers like themAnd to speak at your funeralBecause of course being super fatWill take your life by 50, 60 at best.
Skinnies be anxious about theirbodies and never proudBut when you lose equivalentsof full sized people in your pantiesYou’ll be proud and be postingevery angle from both sides now
Teach them tooWhat it is to love a bodyEntirely without shameTeaching them to never be afraidOf the changes life has forbodies made to break and bendGive life, and take our last breathWithout so much weight that’s deadMy non friends and dear ones
And look, skin cleared up too.
