Beautiful Girls

They say life is easy for a beautiful girl
They expect us to always smile 
like the world is sprouting daisy daily
But underneath the good genetics 
lies a girl whose scared to end up lonely

She brings that cover girl smile 
everyday so no one will catch on to her secret
Even though she cries so many tears 
there is no puffy eyes to prove to her peers

Everyone wants to be her and see her 
and though they anticipate something great
she sees herself as a mediocre and second rate
she can't seem to find the real ones 
So she goes through countless samples
to see what taste best 

But as she's tasting her heart is breaking
Even though this girl is beautiful
It doesn't guarantee her heart a force field 
You know cause eventually your not unique
enough for their tastes

They want model tall, and curvy but not chubby
So this beautiful girl looks in the mirror all day
wondering why she doesn't believe these compliments
         that she receives daily

If I were truly a beautiful girl 
than guys would stick around 
If I were a beautiful girl than I would be in love
Cause the truth of this story is sad but true
Nothing made this girl feel more beautiful 
than hearing it being said from her lovers lips
