'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder'

To an extent that phrase is true,

But really nowadays

It isn't up to you


To be thin is to be beautiful

That's what we all think

But the idea of weight controls people

They shrink, and shrink, and shrink


You're given figure

You cannot choose it

'Your body must be perfect

Or else what use is it?'


We have this mindset

This belief, this ideal

But when it comes down to it,

This isn't real


If beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Why is beauty defined?

Because beauty is in the eye no longer

It's in the beholder's mind.

It's in the beholder's mind
