I thought she’d left a while ago
I was happy all this time
But just when I thought I was enough
Ana came back to town
She saw the way I’ve grown and gained
She saw the number below my feet
She scoffed and laughed
And said to me
Oh wow you’re doing great
Her hatred filled my ears and mind
And brought back all the tears
Ana pushed away my food
Said this will be our year
She said it’s been long overdue
That she’d been here again
She’ll push me to the ground this time
I’ll try not to let her win
She showed me all those years ago
When I was just a kid
When her and I were the best of friends
I’d never seen so clear
And now just like a coach she’s here
Yelling in my ear
Telling me you’re not good enough
Until you hear them cheer
I’ll change my hair and change my face
I’ll run all day
I’ll keep the pace
I’ll look at food and turn away
And hope that soon
Ana will leave again someday
Someday when I am smaller
My bones will start to show
I’ll cover up my body
So nobody will know
I’ll lie to friends and family
Why should I let them in
Ana says they’d never care
And when they start to see
My body will be gone away
My best friend Ana and me.
