I agree with the things said above. I think, more than an outright statement about anorexia, it's a retaliation against today's media, as anaisconce already pointed out. I'm sure Karin has gotten plenty of pressure to play the stereotypical role of today's female performer.
Words like "Sharpen my body like a pen" make me think of euphemisms the industry has come up with for their ideal body like "toned." The choice of the word sharpen offers a jab at the industry and points towards the unhealthy, destructive way of life they really want from their performers.
"Guiding with one single hand...you like the feeling." Sexual? Yes. However, I think it has more to do with the perverse attraction to the "ideal" than anything else. I'd offer more of my own thoughts but there is a world outside of the internet that I must attend to.
