Beauty Incarnate

Beauty incarnate
Holds the trembling spoon
guilt ridden and disgusted
its the same old tune

Beauty incarnate
avoiding the mirror
obsessing over pant sizes
failure is nearer

Beauty incarnate
she'll binge and she'll purge
how much more can she take
future's song is a dirge

Beauty incarnate
enough's never enough
her body is failing
but she's always been tough

Beauty incarnate
her smile, once bright
isn't seen any more
she's given up the fight

Beauty incarnate
potential unrealized
and now its too late
lost in a fight for the idealized

Beauty incarnate
who will stop this sick game
for the next blind beauty
'fore her fate turns the same
