running to nowhere, always and forever

You will never achieve perfection
You drain yourself with your efforts, I see how tired you come home
But you reach absolutely nothing but sweat
Excess sweat and never a finish line
But it makes you feel good
For only an ounce of time
Seeing yourself smaller
Like you have some sort of control over the life where you remain simply powerless
You'll rot in your delusions, but I can't blame you
The best of the best fall into this trap
Saddest part is
You'll willingly give up your sanity
For a body that you'll never feel at home in
Even though after getting smaller and smaller
You'll still tear up those pictures
You'll still run to nowhere
Always and forever
