Perfect

Imitate the stars
On the TV screen
Waste your time
Trying to be
Someone you�re not
Cut your hair
Paint your face
Spend your money
On fashions that
Died yesterday
And a car
You can�t even drive
Laugh like them
Cry like them
Talk like them
Walk like them
Be perfect like them
Perfectly alone like them
Perfectly blind like them
Perfectly sad like them
Can�t you see
They�re perfectly everything
You don�t need to be?
