Perfection

by Xeni

/

about

We tend to imagine things so vividly in our minds and then, reality strikes us down often to show us what is, well, real.

lyrics

Intro:
You want power but your bones are cracking
It’s motivation you’re lacking
She’s more than you wanted
All that you needed
And you can’t take it
Nah, you can’t shake it
oh nah

Verse 1:
She wasn’t meant to be touched
Just admired
Now there’s dirt
On her skin
And flowers
In her hair
(she’s more than you wanted)
All she needed
Was a little more time
But the pulse in your veins
Was more than you could bare
Why
(more than you could bare)

Chorus:
Please believe me
When I say I need you
I’m not crazy
I just have to get through
It’s your perfection
It’s my deception
And I persist in it
But it never existed

(My strength comes from you
Now I’m lying
Black and Blue
On this floor
These tears weren’t dried by you)

Verse 2:
She always felt
Someone over her shoulder
And it’s bringing her down
And breaking her wings
Oh she felt
Like enough was enough
She wants to be free
With flowers in her hair
