Who are you?
when the night is finished?
How do you feel?
Happy or diminished?
when you are in the mirror
Are you reflection or image?
by that i mean
"the girl" on the magazines
the one smiling with her ribs seen
and shes not flexing but im detecting
the anorexia and bulimia
"the girl" who demands attention
"that girl" who doesnt have extensions
the model
the coverGirl
the confident...perfect words...
the perfect...perfect curls
in the videos doing nothing but all the guys want" her"
on the front page of KING with the phat-est ass
and i think I must be trash
unless i get little more makeup
lose this stomach and get some implants
i could have a chance to steal a glance
oohh i need more money
for the the mac and sephora make up
anything for my face to look like "hers"
i just need to get my cake up
she is my definition of beauty
the reason i squeeze
into smaller size jeans
daughter.....
girlfriend....
sister....
mother and best friend....
you just dont get understand
im not just following trends
that extra make up and tight jeans
boost my self esteem
and though it kills me when i see me
i like imagine I'm "her" in my dreams
"that girl" in the video that captures his eyes
"that girl" who is always happy and never cries
"that girl" who has the perfect complexion
"that girl" cant possibly cant be teased
"that girl" who is ...who is...is who....
i want to be....
"that girl" ......
*shatters mirror*
"that girl" is inside of me waiting to be free
