Price of Beauty

Pretty girl all made up  An image for the eye She appears so perfect but it's a lie She Is fake in every way Plastic surgery fake hair So fragile touch her and shell tear Pretty little girl perched up for all to see Is this really what you want to be A porcelain doll  Trapped with strict laws Scolded for the simplest flaws Your beauty won't last forever How long till you fall Ticking time bomb they can only push you so far When you break you'll shatter
