Goddamn Perfect

I'm hoping that my feet won't fail me
Cuz I see the smoke forming off your lips
I can feel it exploding from my fingertips like

What's the use in stitching it together
When you long to be alone
Running down like mercury before your feet
When I know I don't belong
Investing everything that's left of me
Hoping that I won't let go of you
Like you let go of me
When all I ever see are

Eyes like torches slowly swarming in
And you struggle to cover it while you pretend
You're not steadily heading in for the deep end

I'm hoping that my feet won't fail me now
I've grown tired of searching for an easy way out
Why's everything so goddamn perfect from way up high?
I'd rather stay dreaming than believing a lie

Had every chance to turn and run away from everything
But my mind is haunted, my mind is haunted
Tied to the fever holding on to me
I'm just waiting for the end
You got exactly what you wanted

After everything you did
You tried to hide who you have been
Leaving me medicated, I backslid
Just to try to feel safe in my own skin

I'm hoping that my feet won't fail me now
I've grown tired of searching for an easy way out
Why's everything so goddamn perfect from way up high?
I'd rather stay dreaming than believing a lie

Tied to the fever holding on to me
I'm just waiting for the end
You got exactly what you wanted
Tied to the fever holding on to me
I'm just waiting for the end
You got exactly what you wanted

I'm hoping that my feet won't fail me now
I've grown tired of searching for an easy way out
Why's everything so goddamn perfect from way up high?
I'd rather stay dreaming than believing a lie

I'm hoping that my feet won't fail me now
I've grown tired of searching for an easy way out
Why's everything so goddamn perfect from way up high?
I'd rather stay dreaming than believing a lie
