THIS SHALLOW SOCIETY
In this shallow society I'll never fit in
I'll always be on the bottom and I'll never win
They say it's not just about looks
But I only see beautiful people in magazines and books
I never see someone look like me on a TV show
I never see someone like me take a lead role I never see people like me married to the love of their lives
They stay out of the limelight and continue to hide
Because we're not wanted in this shallow society
No one wants anything to do with someone like me
I know it's true, I don't fall for the lies
That it's not about looks, it's about what's inside
It's a nice little line that never works in reality
You can be nice but shunned if you have a physical abnormality
You'll be called a loser if you live paycheck to paycheck
Even though your workload has you breaking your neck
I'm not meant to live in this shallow society
I just want to break away from this world and finally be free.
