Back in the days when I was a weak pawn
Hurtful jokes on my weight they cracked upon
I was the belly monster
My adolescence could wait
The million years I’d need to escape
Unable to undress on the beach
Boiling up inside a pain no one could reach
I was the flabby brother
Food was my only link
With Mother while others were making me sink
Oh…Those dark days are done
My bad luck is gone
But still today
I don’t feel okay
When I look in the mirror’s eye
Somehow in my mind I’m still
The boy you’re laughing at.
