Scale

from Songs? by Radical McKickflip

/

lyrics

She stepped on, not knowing that she would see
A number she never though she'd reach
A kilogram or two, maybe three, too many
It was too hard for her to simply believe

She couldn't handle the weight
Of all the choices she made
She couldn't look away
(From the scale)
It was too heavy to take
The numbers on the scale say
She's made too many mistakes
(On the scale)

She skipped breakfast, ate rice for lunch, not too much
Her friends worried it was not enough
She ran hard during gym that day to lose weight
'Till she fainted and fell flat on her face

She couldn't handle the weight
Of all the choices she made
She couldn't look away
(From the scale)
It was too heavy to take
The numbers on the scale say
She's made too many mistakes
(On the scale)

And soon later that day
Her mother threw it away
The scale's been broken for days
(Broken for days)
Not knowing about the weight
Her daughter thought she had gained
And all the choices she made
(Thanks to the scale)

She couldn't handle the weight
Of all the choices she made
She couldn't look away
(From the scale)
It was too heavy to take
The numbers on the scale say
She's made too many mistakes
(Thanks to the scale)
