Perfect (Not)

Why are you trying to change me?
Wipe away all that I am
What is perfection in your eyes?
You forgot to ask me the same
I look at myself in the mirror
And I like the person I see
Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't see you
Do you think that you can break me?

You tell me the ways I should change, rearrange
But I have got something to say

Who do you think you are?
To rid me of all of my scars!
I'm on my own way
Don't need you to say
That I'm perfect
And I don't need to be saved
I know I've been damaged
But I'm liking myself this way

I'll read your news in the morning
All about your perfect life
Then I'll look at my reflection
And breathe a huge sigh of relief
Your perfection never would suit me
I find treasure in the mess
I'm not what you want, you can't change me
Do you really think to break me?

And make me succumb to your standards
Well, no, I've got something to say

Who do you think you are?
To rid me of all of my scars
I'm on my own way
Don't need you to say
That I'm perfect
And I don't need to be saved
I know I've been damaged
But I'm liking myself this way

I live every day with a smile on my face
Happy to be living true
Been going my own way, for all of my life
A way that would never suit you

Who do you think you are?
To rid me of all of my scars
I'm on my own way
And I'm perfect
And I don't need to be saved
Who do you think you are?
To rid me of all of my scars
I'm on my own way
Don't need you to say
That I'm perfect
And I don't need to be saved
I know I've been damaged
But I'm liking myself this way
