perfect by nature
icons of self indulgence
just what we all need
more lies about a world that
never was and never will be
have you no shame don't you see me
you know you've got everybody fooled
look here she comes now
bow down and stare in wonder
oh how we love you
no flaws when you're pretending
but now i know she
never was and never will be
you don't know how you've betrayed me
and somehow you've got everybody fooled
without the mask where will you hide
can't find yourself lost in your lie
i know the truth now
i know who you are
and i don't love you anymore
it never was and never will be
you don't know how you've betrayed me
and somehow you've got everybody fooled
it never was and never will be
you're not real and you can't save me
somehow now you're everybody's fool

Living the perfect-lie
I cannot begin to express the pressure behind "perfection".
Perfect daughter, perfect student, perfect mother, perfect wife.... it's enough to make any person insane, living the lie that "this is the perfect life".
I've been told so many times, "Do you know how people WISH they were you because you have it so good?!?"
really?
Something inside me says, "If only they knew how lonely and barren perfection's appearance really is."
