The Answer

Everyone wants to know why.
They want "The Answer"
I have the reason why.

The Media.
It tells you," Beauty is skin deep"
So we look. Haven't found it yet.
Keep looking.

The Bullies.
They tell you," You're not worth anything"
We prove them wrong.
We're worth blood.

The Friends.
They tell you," You need help"
We are getting help.
We're helping ourselves.

The Shrink.
She tells you," You should stop. Not pretty"
Guess what
Stop looking.

The Pain.
It tells you," I want out"
We do as we are told
We listen.

The "Special" One.
They tell you," It's over"
They're right
Life is over.

The Posers.
They tell you." Doesn't that hurt"
No, it doesn't
We fell better.

The World.
They tell you," Why do you do it"
We tell them the answer
"Isn't it obvious?"
