Coveted Beauty
May 29, 2012
She was told to pretend She's pretty
She can't deal with the stress anymore
cuts her arms up and down
i don't think She can win this war
She was told to image She's beautiful
but now, it's plain to see
that noone thought She was stunning
nobody, but me
She was told She was to be perfect
why couldn't anyone just love her?
i did, but now the truth is out
and lies, they'll use for cover.
