the good girls club

the good girls club

where the happy girls cry

and the strait A students have some down time

where the perfect act falls

and the sad girl comes in

for a moment or two 

because good girls don't fit in

like the other kids

and people think that its fine 

cause they have homework

and afterschool stuff

and its fine cause they're smart

no, these girls don't quit

and they don't even mind 

because of course they love it

these girls don't have burnout,

at least that you see

you'd say that they're perfect

but behind the scenes

these girls are the ones who drown out the world

in music and pinterest and books and in poems

they seem so innocent but nobody knows

cause these girls don't show you when they are fazed

the work of a good girl is not so easy

constantly having to be good at everything

because when your the smart kid a B is an F

and anything other than perfect is mediocre at best

so the good girls club

where you're allowed to be fine

is the space where the good girls

don't have to keep lying

until they finally

snap
