Self Assessment

Self Assessment

Longer hair
Brighter smile
Lighter hair
Wider smile

Shorter hair
Whiter teeth
Darker skin
Less to eat

Lose some weight
Open emotions
Sway your body
Like the ocean
Strive for perfection
Live for attention
Insure your assets
Covered protection

Plastic face
Wrinkle-free skin
Mechanical robot
Made out of tin

Shave all your hair
Sexy smooth shins
“Desire for perfection”
The 8th deadly sin

Lose some weight
Open emotions
Sway your body
Like the ocean
Strive for perfection
Live for attention
Insure your assets
Covered protection

Designer clothes
Fashion shows
Broken nail
Tears flow

Can’t you see
You’re living a lie
Damn ugly
Is how you’ll die

Lose some weight
Open emotions
Sway your body
Like the ocean
Strive for perfection
Live for attention
Insure your assets
Covered protection

Lose some weight
Open emotions
Sway your body
Like the ocean
Strive for perfection
Live for attention
Insure your assets
Covered protection

This song is about people these day's tring to be perfect, either resorting to things like surgery or just by general improvement, rather than accepting who they are. Rather like brainwashing themselves to think they are like something they are not.

Do you think that this song shows this topic in an easy to understand way??

Opinions would be good! thanks SAM

Can I just say that I love the theme of this song and I think it perfectly represents the way that people are constantly striving for perfection for sometimes no reason, when perfect doesn't really exist, but it's also the people that aren't desperately unhappy with the way that they look that go ahead to try and look better! Sorry i've gone off on a completely different tangent and am probably gonna get shouted at for it lol! But your lyrics do express this topic in an easy to understand way, very clearly put and very well written! Very well done on the way that you have expressed this topic and put things into perspective!

It's easy to understand, but really, you need (NEED) to watch syllable count, come up with lines that aren't cliche or tired sounding (sway your body like the ocean)

It's a good theme that you're trying to get across, but unfortunatley, getting a point across doesn't make a song.

the point was glaringly obvious, and for the most part it flowed.
I just couldn't dig into it
