No, don't let them see you.
People are afraid of anything
different.
So you have to be like them.
Don't love yourself,
That makes you stuck up.
Don't hate yourself,
That makes you an attention whore.
Don't lie,
That makes you a bad person.
Don't tell the truth,
Say what people want to hear.
Don't be mean,
Just who do you think you are?
Don't be too kind,
Do you think you're better than everyone?
Don't be too pretty,
That makes you self-centered.
Don't forget your make up,
No one wants to see your ugly face.
Don't be too fat.
Don't be too skinny.
Don't be too stupid.
Don't be too smart.
Remember,
Don't be yourself!
Be
Perfect.
