Layers of makeup cover plastic and skin
starving themselves to become nice and thin
People think there is nothing wrong
because everything there has to belong
There is happiness and smiles that don't reach their eyes
and on the inside the person cries
No matter what they do, they still feel the pain
is there anything there they can even gain?
Even as a shining star
they still hate who they are
Pretending to be something they're not
and discovering that not everything can be bought
Everything in their lives seem so unreal
sometimes they forget what they are supposed to feel
When realization finally arrives
they have the need to redo their lives
The life they once had starts to shatter and brake
when they learn everything had been fake
