Perfection
Perfection is something I could never have
A thing that I will never know
Something so many people have
But never me
Never me
I walk on a tightrope
Thousands of feet above the ground
A thin rope
If it breaks
I will die
Yet some strengthen it
Only to cut it down again
Until it's smaller than before
I am strong
And then I am weak again
It comes
And it goes
So quickly
Perfection
A thing so close
And yet so far
It is so simple
It looks simple
It is simple
Yet it is not
It could never be
Never be
I rise
And fall
I am saved
And dropped again
Plummeting to the ground
But no one notices
They never will
Never will
Perfection
Corrupted by regret
If only
If only
Endless days
Sleepless nights
Stay or go
Stay or go
Perfection
Maybe it runs in my veins
So when the veins are broken
Will it be?
But they would never know
Never know
That I was gone
That I was ever here
I'm just the weak one
I could never
Never
Be anything
Never
Never
Never
Goodbye
I will never come back
Never will
Never will
It won't hurt
As much as the pain I feel inside
That I could never show
Never show
Don't bother to remember me
Tomorrow
I will be forever gone
Forever gone
Forever gone
