Push it a little further
The tachometer forces the scales to tip
Beauty that is so self consuming
And yet so skin deep there is not much leftFaster and faster as tires lose traction
Purchase lies sewn into modern fashion
Misled eyes that inspire destruction
How much more can your little vessel take onOver extended and still out of reach
I can not seem to extinguish the blaze
That your body has set flame to
There is an arsonist among the architects
And you don deserve this?you don deserve thisYour creation has gone awry
Eyes hold back tears, but can not be torn away
This is what you have become
Because of what they sayNever to realize your true beauty
And sharp words can scar for a lifetime
Another one trying to escape the pressure
Of their perfectly painted pictureMangled and deceived they left you in a wreck
I want to look away, just not yet
Page to page, cover to cover
Push two more back and indulge in another
