we are in high demand, us people who suffer. because we don't take to arguing and we are quick to surrender.

if my hands are too rough, i'll wear suede gloves
if my eyes are too dark, i'll look into the sun
if they are too light, i'll stare at your feet
if i'm too loud, kiss me to shut up
if i'm too quiet, i'll pinch myself to speak up
if my nails are too short, paint them for me
if they are too long, i'll bite them off
if i have too many freckles, i'll try to change skin color
if my ears are too big, i'll hide them behind my hair
if my arms have too much hair on them, i'll shave them
if my voice is too annoying, i'll write to you
if i'm too ugly, i'll make it semi-pretty with makeup
but please, try not to look at it
