Testo Ms Perfect

Everywhere you go, you're on demand.
Just remember what they told you.
"It may seem much more than you had planned
"But who wants to be true?"
Admire all your new friends.
They'll tell you who you really are.
But in reality you're all alone again.
Have you take this too far?
This is everything you wanted.
So why do you cry each night?
Waiting for dawn, another new day,
But nothing ever changes.

Conceal, pose and smile.
This mask of success fits perfectly.
Always exuding style.
But the deception barely hides your insecurity.

You look to the mirror, and sit alone.
You can't bear to look and reflect.
Staring back is a face that seems unknown
It fades so soon into regrets. Smear your lipstick on the glass.
Look at all the 'beauty' you possess.
Stare so deep into your past.
And realise it's forced you to obsess.

This is everything you wanted.
So why do you cry each night?
Waiting for another new day.
But nothing ever changes.

Conceal, pose and smile.
This mask of success fits perfectly.
Always exuding style.
But the deception barely hides your insecurity.

The stars shine so brightly, but the brilliant glare is blurred by the thickening tears that fall from my eyes, they greet the floor with barely a sound, yet each is more deafening than the last, so placid, this serenity lays shattered, the silence broken.

The silence is broken.
(The nights embrace you).
Your words remain unspoken.
(And dawn will fail you) .

The night falls and dawn awakens.
The light pierces everything you love.
A wave of despair washes over.
And the silence is broken.

And now you're not so perfect.
