Time, ticking  life away
Soon it'll leave us old and grey
Silenced and cold in the grave

"Flaws, flaws, flaws" they said
And the little child tried to be flawless
"Perfect" rang in her head
Screamed in her veins
Boiled in her blood

As she stood there soaked in the rain
Trying to become flawless
Like a siren
Eating up the brain mass
Licking her body
While she screamed
Silently

Time, ticking life away
It left her old and grey
Silenced and cold in the grave

Time took her
The wind blew her away
Left was all the water from her once so beautiful eyes
A sarcastic comment from her once so clever mind
And a sad song in her once so beautiful voice
And she never smiled
Once she had been perfect
