Your Perfect Little Girl

She gets straight A's

Shes wise beyond her days

You talk and she listens

Shes full of ambitions

All you ever wanted

You took her around and flaunted

She's your perfect little girl

People smile as she gives a little twirl

But then you wake

With pain from a head ache

It was a dream

and your mouth forms a scream

How could you not know?

The bed covers come off in one throw

The truth lies inside

But you closed your eyes

Through all her pain

You passed her off as sane

But here she is now

and you dont know how

Shes so broken

Her feelings were spoken

But you looked away

Not once her way

Turns out she isn't so perfect

Her mind is a wreck

Her grades have slipped

and this whole time you've been whipped

Her own web of lies

Her insides have died

She hurts herself

Are you ashamed of yourself?

She doesn't want to live

All you wanted to do was give

Her some love

But you've always been above

You have nothing left to show

Cause now you know

You have no perfect little girl

How about you give her game a whirl

Create a web of lies 

And keep up with your ties

Give people this illusion

That you're living in this perfect delusion

wow, very powerful and i think it speaks for everyone. what is with this strange perception of perfection! were all different, therefore there can not be one small version of perfection. anyway, great job, the last line says it all!

The flaws of a seemingly 'perfect' person are expressed quite strongly here. It sounds like something that Taylor Swift would sing, no offence intended. Good job.

I dont think I've ever heard Taylor Swift sing anything besides sappy songs about boys all the time.. but okay
