Perfect

Please sing to me
I can see you open up to breathe
Fast words make it easier to me
If the point's to never disappoint you
Somebody's got to tell me what to do
I just wish you could have seen me
When it used to come so easy
I like to say that it's easy to stay
But it's not for me
Cuz I'm barely here at all
Slow down, now
The secret's out
And I swear, now everything is perfect
What you want, what you need
Has been killing me
Trying to be everything that you want me to be
I'll say yes, I'll undress
I've done more for less
And I will change everything till' it's perfect again
Coming down, coming around, giving a frown
To the sound when I hit the ground
I hate the way that I say I should stay
When I know I don't give a fuck about it anyway
And shake hands, I shoot smiles all around
As I sell my body by the pound
Sign my name on the dotted line
For would be fate, do not resuscitate
Slow down, now
The secret's out
And I swear, I'll still make this perfect
What you want, what you need
Has been killing me
Trying to be everything that you want me to be
I'll say yes, I'll undress
I've done more for less
And I will change everything till' it's perfect again
I think it's better this way
This is good in a bad way
It's better this way
I'll make this perfect again
I'll make this perfect again
What you want, what you need
Has been killing me
Trying to be everything that you want me to be
I'll say yes, I'll undress
I've done more for less
And I will change everything till' it's perfect again
What you want, what you need
Has been killing me
Trying to be everything that you want me to be (I'll make this perfect again)
I'll say yes, I'll undress
I've done more for less
And I will change everything, believe me, believe me
I'll make this perfect again
