My mind spinning but not fast enough
My breathing vibrates but not fast enough

Haven't I lost enough weight
Haven't I cleared my skin
Haven't I worn the clothes you wanted
Haven't I learned the makeup you said I needed
Haven't I ignored the real problem
It's me....
Stop
I have to stop fixing myself
It's my fault
