Should I be more like them?
Simple, short and right to the point?
Or do you want something mediocre or more?
It's all your choice
You know I'm yours to pursue,
But let me make it easier for you.

All my glitter ain't gold
Some were cheap,
bought from the corner store,
that's all I could afford.

Still,

I promise to be your perfect muse
The money would never counterfeit,
I'd go in debt just to reach your face
and to learn your name.

I'll be your muse,
If it's attainable.

So please,

Lower your standards just a little bit,
They can sometimes be a bit too high,
I know you might sigh reading this,
But,
I just don't have the funds
to keep up with your love and all it's fun.

And I'm doing my best to qualify.
Even if it hurts to try,
though I smile when I cry.

It's blissful, but I'd appreciate something less merciless than killing my pride.

I'll still remain your muse,
That would never change or move,
Whether backstage or behind the curtains
I'll be silent, unnerving
While you paint my portrait.

I'll still remain your muse,That would never change or move,Whether backstage or behind the curtains I'll be silent, unnervingWhile you paint my portrait
