A Dangerous Word
By: Jaya Wartson
It hooks you quickly
But will kill you slowly
Every girl wants to hear it
Hear it once
and they’ll want to hear it again
To hear it a girl will do anything
Cutaway pieces of herself
Tear down others in her way
Crush every free spirit
Pretty is a dangerous word
But will kill you slowly
Every girl wants to hear it
Hear it once
and they’ll want to hear it again
To hear it a girl will do anything
Cutaway pieces of herself
Tear down others in her way
Crush every free spirit
Pretty is a dangerous word
