head up above everyone around you
intimidation fills him high
eyes forward, don't think of settling
her expectations are higher than even he is
you can live off of it
entitled to everything, offering nothing but a pretty face
they all believe you
you aren't aware of their innocent thoughts
not caring enough to speak up
not feeling anger, not feeling anything really
like a robot with her chin up
chin up pin-up, like a doll
you're going to make him wait
he doesn't know how cold you are
cold hands, fake nails and a ticket to the universe
maybe think of settling
someday you'll forget all of this
right now, there is a point
too self-centered to advise him differently
