Why Why should you keep trying When your best is their worst Trying to swim with your hands tied They comment on your form when they were on the side lines The water is flooding your senses All it's saying is Your not good enough You'll never be Your trying to hard Why don't you do this Why don't you do that Why Instead of choline all you Taste is salt Salt from the tears they are pouring out of you like a Niagara Falls Except People see Niagara Falls And when your finally done with your laps Finally Everyone's gone No one stayed to praise you and say good job. So you get up and start walking You try walking they way they do To try to know what they know The weights in your pockets Holding you down like a rabid dog Like they think your poisonous What they don't know is How the rhythm less dance and how the artist paints But you take away that person The old you The old you who you loved who didn't have a thigh gap never wore make up but was still beautiful The new you is the new it The one everyone wants to be Your standing on a soap box telling everyone love your body and accept your self When As soon as you get home your makeups running and you cover the mirror You don't want to see the old you You also want to be the new you But the thing you have to pretend to Love Love is a complex thought that you tell everyone you have mastered But if you don't love the real you how can love someone else So how do expect someone to love you when if they touch your face its powder. So you weep in fear that they will know your a fake They will find out what your trying to hide But if thats really beauty why aren't we born with make up.
