*I just think we need to talk about this because it's all too common*

I know this girl
She's a lot like me
Wanting to be the best at everything

Wanting to be better, be brighter, to be smarter, to be thinner

So first, it's just lots of exercise and smaller meals
You really don't feel as if it's a big deal

Because you need to be perfect

But it grows and soon enough, you're still not good enough

Not smart enough, skins not clear enough, just not pretty enough

So what's one less meal and excessive exercise
Excessive face scrubs and masks
Until prettiness and perfection exudes from your pores

But now, it's the clothes
Not as cute as that popular girl in your class
So you throw out your closet
You buy a brand new wardrobe
You start wearing makeup

And then you become, someone new

But it's still not right. Because deep down you'll never be good and proper and pretty and

Well, perfect

But you never needed to be all of those things
Because you are pretty and smart and strong
And who cares what jean size you wear

Do you feel good? You should feel good.

Never change. Cause you'll always be good enough to me
