Breaking

Plastic

They tell me to smile

Sit up straight

Close your mouth and legs

Act like a lady

Smile like you mean it

But what if i don't?

What if i don't mean it?

What if i don't want to

act like the lady you crave?

Act cute and perky

When I feel like shit

What if i don't feel like pretending?

Trying to fit into this role

you wish me to squeeze into

Why can't I just be me?

Loud and passionate

Antsy and scatterbrained

Clumsy and brilliant

Sure I can be sensitive

I can be sweet

I can smile

But if it's forced

then it's only plastic
