Cliche


They say beauty is on the inside

i guess I can see why

i preached it myself

till I was on the other side.

when your the one that's bullied

and your the one alone

life isn't as easy

when your the fat and ugly one.

People take for granted 

the kindness of the heart

If your not the one that's pretty

People will step on you

Until you've had enough. 

Its easy to repeat a quote

But the words you speak are not true

until you've witnessed it yourself.
