Enter Thy Mind

Litte Miss

There is this amazingly beautiful girl
Who's afraid to show her face to the world
She covers it every day in mascara and lipstick
 Once you saw her eating, yeah, she quit it

Everyone around her observing eyes only see
She thinks ‘they're so much prettier than me.'
She tried her best, a straightener and curling iron
It's only a matter of time before there is a siren

She cries every day in the school's bathroom
Hoping that one day she will meet her doom
She plays life like a game, and she had lost
She used all her money, but at what cost

She tried so hard to fit in with the others
She ignored everyone's pleas, even her mothers'
She was digging herself a six foot grave
She couldn't take it anymore, not day by day

She used more make up to cover her eyes
Which only smeared every time she cried
She pounded layers of make up on her face
Trying to feel better, but was still out of place

Diet pills and water, that was the way it goes
It was her life to ruin, that's what she chose
But she forgot all those one who she left behind
All ones who cared for her never crossed her mind

She dug herself deeper and deeper into the ground
So deep that she could no longer see anyone around
Her tears filled up her glass to down the last of her pills
But at the last second backed out, and it only made her ill

Scared for her life that she was really going to die
She let out one last blood curdling battle cry
Those sirens that she knew she would hear one day
It was then she hoped for once that she would be otay

Tears pour out of her forgotten mothers cheeks
Had seeing her daughter coughing up red streaks
It finally hit her that someone did actually care
That for once she realized there was someone there

They loved her, she felt guilty for what she did
All she did was grieve and all they did was give
She sat in an all-white room, 24 hour care
By her side, there was always one person there

She wiped the makeup from her running eyes
She hated that she didn't see it, ‘I can't die'
‘Not now', it was too early to truthfully know
So she sighed and out up one last show

She smiled to all of her family and friends
Tried to make them all happy in the end
There was no longer any make up on her face
The smile was the last everyone ever saw of her dying grace

If the world could only see how beautiful she was
Could it have stopped this angel from flying above
If the world could only see how beautiful she still is
Maybe none of this would have happened, Little Miss
