She envies the girls with all the shallow labels
Unconfidence is what she's built around
She has a seraphic face under all that black
Twenty minutes behind the bathroom mirror
But still, it's never enough
No, it's never enough...
They're all glistening on the covers of old magazines
While she thumbs through the pages torn
Of something she wishes she could be
And all the while, she's crying over their fake smiles
This world expects perfection
(no ones got perfection)
Something no ones got
When the sticks all used up, she can't leave
Not until she's somewhat decent
Not until she's caked
Hiding in the bathroom with the door sealed shut
While everyone else is out
Because no one wants to dance with hideousness
They're all glistening on the covers of old magazines
While she thumbs through the pages torn
Of something she wishes she could be
And all the while, she's crying over their fake smiles
This world expects perfection
(no ones got perfection)
Something no ones got
Break the image staring back at me
Break it so no one else can see
Bleeding hands, broken glass
Cause this world expects perfection
(perfection, perfection, no ones got perfection)
Something no one in this world has...
(perfection, perfection, no ones got perfection)
No one has perfection...
It's something this world will never see...
They're all glistening on the covers of old magazines
While she thumbs through the pages torn
Of something she wishes she could be
And all the while, she's crying over their fake smiles
This world expects perfection
(no ones got perfection)
Something no ones got |
Submission Name: Perfection.
