Not so Picture Perfect
They tell her how to live
From the day she's born
Sacrifice her soul
Or they'll laugh her to scorn
Giving hours of time
With nothing returned
Only lists of rules and verse
That she's gotta learn
I had a revelation
All my own
Never been so certain
Oh I know
They'll say I'm blinded
But I can finally see
That the girl they want so badly
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
Get her married off
By the age of twenty
No life experience
He'll handle the money
With a man on her arm
Baby in her belly
She can do no wrong
She's so heavenly
I had a revelation
All my own
Never been so certain
Oh I know
They'll say I'm blinded
But I can finally see
That the girl they want so badly
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
The closer that you look it's
Not so picture perfect
You teach not to judge but you do nothing else
I'm tearing down the walls, showing myself
I had a revelation
All my own
Never been so certain
Oh I know
They'll say I'm blinded
But I can finally see
That the girl they want so badly
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
From the day she's born
Sacrifice her soul
Or they'll laugh her to scorn
Giving hours of time
With nothing returned
Only lists of rules and verse
That she's gotta learn
I had a revelation
All my own
Never been so certain
Oh I know
They'll say I'm blinded
But I can finally see
That the girl they want so badly
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
Get her married off
By the age of twenty
No life experience
He'll handle the money
With a man on her arm
Baby in her belly
She can do no wrong
She's so heavenly
I had a revelation
All my own
Never been so certain
Oh I know
They'll say I'm blinded
But I can finally see
That the girl they want so badly
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
The closer that you look it's
Not so picture perfect
You teach not to judge but you do nothing else
I'm tearing down the walls, showing myself
I had a revelation
All my own
Never been so certain
Oh I know
They'll say I'm blinded
But I can finally see
That the girl they want so badly
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
She isn't me
Oh oh oh oh
