Perfect, naturally.


Illusion runs its course through Instagram filters

Fake smiles and lives out of kilter 

Layers of makeup covering beauty 

Everyone follows what they see in the movies 

Behind it all we are the same person

Watching this world slowly worsen 

Forget the selfies

Forget the distractions

It is time to take some action

We are perfect the way we are
