Perfect smile
Perfect heart
Perfect lie
Perfect, not

When I think perfect
I think why not me?

Why can't I be the Blair Waldorf
Queen B
Stand up to the queens who cling, see
You can't be perfect
when you care what other people think

Deep down you know you are mediocre
you come second
but you want to come first
you always expect the worst

Now it's getting harder to compete
Why oh why can't I just be me?
I don't want to be
I want to be the one on the magazine.

Looking in the mirror I pick myself a part
It gets worst and worse until I go to school
and play the part.

Perfect smile
Perfect heart
Why didn't I just tell them I was playing
like art.

Perfect.

Why is it so hard to become?

Perfect.

I use to think it was everything in one.

But perfect is so hard, perfect is overrated
Sometimes you have to let your crown fall
and your facades follow
Sometimes perfect can't be who you want to become.
Because perfect awaits the moments, until you finally fall,
perfect will not always be there
for you
perfect is what I am not.

Sometimes you gotta bleed to know
Who you are isn't just a primitive show

Perfect can't save you from the future you face
But flaws can help determine who you are while you wait
