Vanity
I need my hair just right
I need my socks to match each other
I need mascara to be on point
I need foundation to hide who I am
When does it stop
How do you know
at what point and time do you lose yourself
All this covering up
I've learned to be what people want
But what do I really want myself
V.A.N.I.T.Y
Somethings change with just a little touch
Yet somethings never change
you can't mask a girls insecurities up
She still feels them everyday
No matter what her outside appearance says
and the more she feels INVINCIBLE
the more she feels AFRAID
V.A.N.I.T.Y
There's no hair color to pretty
you can be pretty naturally
I love my hair straight like chinese people
that's why I use a 300 dollar flat iron
and I love handbags of the expensive varity
I put on a show each day for everyone
But inside i'm alone
and no one really knows
V.A.N.I.T.Y
I close my eyes and wish I could disappear
from this moment in time
escape our 21st century
where they teach us to judge by what we see
So i'm vain because of society
I have to look pleasing to the eye?
Is it my fault I'm vain?
Or is it our problem in disguise?
V.A.N.I.T.Y
