Being nice isn't as complicated as engineering

Too skinny, too fat that's all i keep hearing 
Those insults are like a thrifted piece of furniture 
As much as you want to cover them with paint 
The original painting keeps appearing
Maybe words do hurt and are tearing
Maybe spend your time on thinking about 
About something more pioneering
Being nice isn't as complicated as engineering 
Maybe be, to people’s lives, less adhering.
Maybe be God fearing 
Too skinny, too fat that's all i keep hearing 
Maybe words do hurt and are tearing
If you can’t be a decent human being. 
Consider disappearing.
Or apologising and volunteering 
To make this world worth living.
