Better Off Dumb

Trapped in a box
Most cannot see
Blinded by pink ribbon
Analyzed and appraised before we speak

Stupid girl
Why do you live in fear?
You're a million lies and every one's for sale
You'll find no sympathy here

Don't scrutinize my behavior 
You're too ignorant to see me for me
I'm safe in my own skin
I could care less what you see

Just a woman
Up for comparison
In a mans world 
Perhaps I'm better off dumb
