Pobody's Nerfect
I, tried being perfect
But it's just not me
It was a futile effort
Now it's easy for me to see
We're so quick to question
Authenticity
No, no one's ever good enough
Everybody likes to think they know it all
But no one's perfect
Build you up because they love to see you fall
It's so sadistic
Everybody thinks they have to take a stance
Though it's arbitrary
I think everyone deserves a second chance
Unless they don't
If we were judged
By our worst day
Who would any of us be
Who would any of us be
We've got no love
No understanding
We're thirsty for the guillotine
It's so obvious to me
Yeah, we're painting
With too broad a brush
And it's getting
The best of us
Yeah, we're painting
With too broad a brush
And it's getting
The best of us
Everybody likes to think they know it all
But no one's perfect
Build you up because they love to see you fall
It's so sadistic
Everybody thinks they have to take a stance
Though it's arbitrary
I think everyone deserves a second chance
Unless they don't
There's nuance to unfurl
And perspectives to discuss
Yeah, there's evil in the world
But it's not in most of us
The only certainty today is nothing's black or white, it's grey
No, it's not that complicated
We're all diamonds in the rough
Everybody likes to think they know it all
But no one's perfect
Build you up because they love to see you fall
It's so sadistic
Everybody thinks they have to take a stance
Though it's arbitrary
I think everyone deserves a second chance
Unless they don't
I don't mean to be
Dismissive, callous or obscene
I just think that we
Overcorrect to the extreme
Can we try to do better
Can we try to not be bitter
And we know we need to stop
But you can't, cuz you've never been a quitter
What started out as nothing
Turned into something bigger
Now the masses want a victim
A public stoning, delete your Twitter
But it's just not me
It was a futile effort
Now it's easy for me to see
We're so quick to question
Authenticity
No, no one's ever good enough
Everybody likes to think they know it all
But no one's perfect
Build you up because they love to see you fall
It's so sadistic
Everybody thinks they have to take a stance
Though it's arbitrary
I think everyone deserves a second chance
Unless they don't
If we were judged
By our worst day
Who would any of us be
Who would any of us be
We've got no love
No understanding
We're thirsty for the guillotine
It's so obvious to me
Yeah, we're painting
With too broad a brush
And it's getting
The best of us
Yeah, we're painting
With too broad a brush
And it's getting

Everybody thinks they have to take a stance
