A/N: I was reading in my engineering book for school and came across some photographs of snowflakes by Wilson Bentley. Intrigued, I googled it and found so many pictures of beautiful snowflakes! Something I noticed, though, is that when you look at the pictures, the snowflakes are all unique and symmetrical, for the most part, but there are always tiny imperfections that make them even prettier. That's where this song comes from. Never feel like you need to follow.

Heard you're in a tough time

Heard you're running out of time

Heard you got some problems messing with your life

It'll be alright


You're saying you're not enough

I'm here to say you're wrong

Because the perfect imperfections are what have

Made you you all along


Yeah, you have that symmetry gone just a little asymmetrical

The pretty side of your mistakes, I'm telling you it's not your fault

So remember that your problems are just six sides in the making

You're like a snowflake


Heard the storm is shaking you

I say the storm is shaping you

Right now you'll tell me that's a lie but

Later you'll admit I was right


'Cause, you have that symmetry gone just a little asymmetrical

The pretty side of these mistakes, I'm telling you it's not all your fault

So remember that your problems are just six sides in the making

You're like a snowflake


Solve one problem, add a tiny crystal

Sometimes solving adds a whole branch

Later you will finally see it all

And all your problems worked to your advantage


'Cause, you had that symmetry gone just a little asymmetrical

The pretty side of your mistakes, you'll know it wasn't all your fault

You'll remember that your problems were just six sides in the making

You're like a snowflake
