A+ A- |
See the boys flock around her
the winning smile, the sunlit hair
Shouldn't I be envious
Treated like a goddess
true beauty from above
Aren't I envious
Dreamy face
perfect body
I should be envious
And I'm not
For I'd rather live my entire life as a distant illuminating flicker
than to glow like a thousand stars for a moment
and burn out the wick
