The fear, the hate and the pressure to be...
To be it. To love it. To hate it. To despise it.

And the magazines show "perfect" girls, giving us tips on how to be like them.
The school yard is filled with words of torment and pressure to look plastic.
Whilst society tells you to be yourself 'cause you're fantastic.
The world keeps changing its minds on being perfect.
Well, I say fuck it!
It really isn't worth it.
