Paint me in a portrait of pure bliss and perfection.
Shadow me in gentle love and a strong protection.
Help me tie my ribbons while I strap into my shoes.
I'll wear my sweetest smile and won't dare give any clues.
Picture me in pink, my heart it shines of gold.
I listen and I nod my head, I do all as I'm told.
Perfect little girl, from my head down to my toes.
But even picture perfect girls have secrets no one knows.
Big glossy dolly eyes, they make it hard to see.
I cannot understand why no one will love me.
I've worked and worked so long and hard to be so dear and pure.
I try so much to be my perfect self and someone people adore.
Yet time and time again they only seem to stray.
"You're oh so sweet and lovely." Is all they ever say.
I don't want recognition please, I don't just want you to admit.
I know what I am worth but I can't help to throw a fit.
I'd do anything for just a bit of love,
I merely want a romance of my own.
But no matter how hard I try,
This picture perfect girl will only ever be alone.
Picture Perfect.
