Lyrics

Perfect

At one time close now somehow far

No more oppression

No more scabs

To heal or pick open again

Attention strayed from everything

I will never believe again

I don't think anything is true

Is anything for certain

Can't take the place of you

But it takes the place of nothing

When everything is perfect

Why is everything so rotten?

It can't take the place of place of place of me in you

To think how some were wanting me

I'm close to something wrong to me

If i confess you'll lie to me

I think of something

Wondering if i will ever believe again

I don't think anything is true

Is anything for certain

Can't take the place of you

But it takes the place of nothing

When everything is perfect

Why is everything so rotten?

It can't take the place of place of place of me in you

As i walk away from you

How can I how can I

Look at you when I feel this way now

How can I how can I

Look at you when I'm pissed off somehow

How can I how can I

Look at you when I feel this way now

How can I how can I

Look at you when I'm pissed off some

How can I how can I

Look at you when I feel this way now

How can I how can I

Look at you when I'm pissed off somehow

Somehow

Somehow
