Autocorrect
They do not think I'm pretty
Just another imperfection
They tell me to change
To live by their correction
Their correction.
They think my nose is big
Contour is their suggestion
A bigger hole to dig
To live by their correction
Their correction
They find more insecurities
More than I knew I had
They think that I'd look better covered by a paper bag
They think their words are right
They think it makes me strong
Until my eyes get red
Not knowing that they're wrong
They make me feel so stupid
They make me feel so weak
They shake me till the hot tears start to stream right down my cheeks.
They think their words don't hurt
They hurt more than they think
All of them don't care
Till I bleed out in the sink
But its all okay
Their words are clear projection
Change is all I need to do to finally reach perfection
Their correction
