Lyrics
Imperfection she's been told
Imperfection has been pointed out to her.
The positives are undersold
The positive aspects of her being are not acknowledged or appreciated.
A gain of envy, a loss of health
Experiencing jealousy and losing well-being.
Preparing to consume herself
Getting ready to self-destruct or harm herself.
She does not see the pulsing veins
She is oblivious to the inner struggles and conflicts.
She does not feel her own restraints
Unaware of the limitations she imposes on herself.
Before her eyes the beauty is wasting away
The beauty before her is deteriorating.
Reflections placed, she's dressed in decay
Her self-image is influenced by negative reflections, and she appears to be in a state of decay.
You see the struggle flood the skin
Visible signs of struggle on the surface of her skin.
From promises to paper-thin
From promises made to something fragile and insubstantial.
She turns a blind eye, will of stone
Ignoring problems with a stoic attitude.
From stunning smile, to flesh and bone
From an attractive appearance to the reality of mortality.
She does not see the pulsing veins
Remaining unaware of internal conflicts.
She does not feel her own restraints
Unconscious of self-imposed restrictions.
Before her eyes the beauty is wasting away
The beauty she witnesses is fading away.
Reflections placed, she's dressed in decay
Her self-image is marred by negative reflections, leading to a state of decay.
She does not see the pulsing veins
Blind to the internal struggles represented by pulsing veins.
She does not feel her own restraints
Unaware of limitations and restrictions she places on herself.
Before her eyes the beauty is wasting away
Observing the gradual decline of beauty before her eyes.
Reflections placed, she's dressed in decay
Her self-image is tainted by negative reflections, resulting in a state of decay.
