The Perfectionist

Here I am again
This is the end
Of all I've ever known
Undone at the seems
I've given everything
Every part of me
Was this all a dream

This isn't where I wanna be
Something has really gotta give
Am I where I supposed to be
I can see the bitter end
Now I dwell in the past to get away
Now my future seems to go away
And always seems to break
I guess I couldn't see what was in front of me
To this pain of mine I hope you choke
Never knowing which way to go
I never know which way to go

As sorrow falls upon me
Have mercy on my soul
My demons tell short stories
The greatest ever told
I want to feel
Like my life was worth it
Like I have a purpose
Why can't I be perfect

As I fall
As I fall to a place of no return
Behind me lies every single thought of you
I'm still lost in my own vein
I guess there was only your point of view

As sorrow falls upon me
Have mercy on my soul
My demons tell short stories
The greatest ever told
I want to feel
Like my life was worth it
Like I have a purpose
Why can't I be perfect?

Where is this going
I need to quit wasting time
This isn't worth it
Just leave me be

Everything I've seen
Everything I've dreamed
Yeah I'm not so perfect
I can't be everything
As I drive the nail
And make promises I can't keep
I'm no fairytale
I can't be everything
Everything I've seen
This is my dream
Yeah I'm not so perfect
I can't be everything
Now watch me run this last time
In fear I fall

In fear I fall
