I know I'm not perfect,
I won't even try to be
This picture perfect portrait version of me
I just wish that for once someone could see
Being beautiful isn't the only good thing.
We mistake love for lust,
We teach hate and greed
But no one ever cares about what we could be.
You're either wanted or worthless,
But no one cares either way
Because the type of love they want
Isn't the type that stays.
