Plastic™?
Darling put on your dress
Tie your hair bows
Spritz your favorite perfume
Gather your heart
Gather your feelings
And tuck them away in your pretty high heels
Ignore the voices inside your head
Only listen to the perfect dolls
And wake up and taste the purity
Grow up and put on a mask
Got to make yourself seem perfect
And erase the flaws and imperfections
Pose for the masses
Smile for the camera
And lie to yourself and finish the agenda
Be a good girl
Stay in the dollhouse
Because life is better when it's plastic.
Blinded by the bling
Suffocated by Sephora
Inside and out killed by Kors.
Mass production
False intentions
Do you think nobody listens?
Because I see things nobody else sees
I forget no flaw, no blemish, no imperfection
Because I am the definition of flawless
And there should be no hesitation

"Some people think that the truth can be hidden with a little cover-up and decoration. But as time goes by, what is true is revealed, and what is fake fades away." ~Ismail Haniyeh
