'Celebrites'

Standing nice and pretty for a picture
The flashing lights blister
They mind revolves around the words:
"Everybody's watching, waiting for you to mess up"
With a heart made from glitter
And a smile made from plastic
They cater to the masses
The worst lies possible become the truth
But no one believes in the person
In the center of the madness
No matter what they do
The people believe more in the magazines
How do you think they feel?
Do you think this is fair?
They can't even be a human
They're the perfect design of a human doll
Entertainment and media's greatest investment
Playing around with lives like they're a toy
Breathing puppets they are
No one wants to correct that
Well I'm just sick of it
What about you?
I know some are thinking "this is what they wanted"
But I say " because they didn't know what they were getting into"
"If they knew all this would happen, they wouldn't have wanted to be famous in the first place"
