Society

escape_artistAngry

Society told me to be skinny They said its the only way I'd be pretty So I shrunk my size everyday Just so society could get their way.

Society told me to have perfect skin They said its the only I'd ever fit in So I used makeup everyday Just so society could get their way.

Society told me to stop being weird They said its causing everyone fear So I became dull and boring I did that for society every morning.

Society's weird and hard to trust But oddly enough Society's us.
