China Doll

I’m a china doll… With rounded hips, And fluorescent lips, I am still never “good enough” . . . But it's okay! I won’t grow today! I’ll lose another layer . . . People start to see, What’s not enough to set me free But, to only me, I have to be, What I saw years ago… . . . But I’m okay, Cause that’s what I say I’ll just lose another layer… . . . All I own Are baggy clothes, From all those Who still can get “too big” . . . Thinning layers, I’m running out I’ve reached my final road. Cause tags and walls Can say so much, But numbers say it all…
