It was the perfect picture
I made sure of that
Credited to the make up, the scenery, my mood perceived by me
Brand new name brand shoes and a glass of pricey *****
The planning and time that I spent
To hold my arm in full extent
I am the envy of all your dreams
The inspiration to your themes
And you can pay me back in likes
To validate my portrayed life

But the pricey ***** washes out
The truth of all my faults and doubt
For my perfect picture wasn't me
It's what I wanted you all to see
Your likes help lift me just a bit
To cover up what I can't admit
Credited by credit, it's what you don't know
So I'll keep it to myself and prepare for my next show
