Am I emaciated

Or just aggravated

Does no one see

That I’m captivated

By your curves

And all the awful

Lies you’ve heard

Is this a dance hall

Or a shopping mall

A million eyes stare at me

Should I withstand it all

Devour me like a lion

Shelter me like a storm

Tell me all the things you’ve told yourself

So that I can hold you till you’re warm

This world can be so cruel

But I’ll take you by the hand

When they turn a blind eye

I’ll make you understand

That vanity runs skin deep

Deeper than hell itself

But where you’re going

You’ll have to let it go

Because the pretty princess

that’s inside of you

Can’t bare to take the toll
