She is a straight A student
The prettiest in the class
She's always smiling
She always has a conversation to be held
She is the one they look up to

But what they don't know
She goes home every night to her drunk father
Who beats her and her mother
They are forced to walk around in public like nothing happens
They live in a run down home that nobody sees
And once she is alone she weeps
She is overwhelmed
But no one sees this

They all see the straight A student
Who's the prettiest in the class
The one everyone talks to
