Perfectionist
I know perfect doesn't exist
But somehow I think that I could reach it
I don't need help, think that I could fix it
All by myself, I'm too scared to admit
Nothing I do is good enough for
My stubborn brain, it always wants more
I hope it will make sense one day
But until then, I will say
I'm a perfectionist
Something I can't resist
Working day and night
Yet it is still not right
I don't think I can quit
I always need more time
I'm a perfectionist
Overthink what I did
Can't be good enough, only flawless
It's never enough if I'm honest
If I'm honest
I've been feeling paralyzed
Overthinking back and forth
Always argue with my mind
But what am I searching for
I need to relax with my thoughts stacked high
It is nearly impossible to ignore this time
Leave it on my desk for another day
Everything I need to do
But I cannot concentrate
Never will finish what I'm beginning cause it's not enough
I just push it off for another month, yeah
And I'm sorry to myself
I know I am holding me back from doing well
When did I learn not to accept getting help
If I let go of control, will it all be worth it
Will I ever be okay with not being perfect
I'm a perfectionist
Something I can't resist
Working day and night
Yet it is still not right
I don't think I can quit
I always need more time
I'm a perfectionist
Overthink what I did
Can't be good enough, only flawless
It's never enough if I'm honest
If I'm honest
I'm not doing anything right
Can you tell me
Why are my standards way too high
I hope you never know what it's like
To be in my mind
To be in my mind
I'm not doing anything right
Can you tell me
Why are my standards way too high
I hope you never know what it's like
To be in my mind
To be in my mind
I'm a perfectionist
Something I can't resist
Working day and night
Yet it is still not right
I don't think I can quit
I always need more time
I'm a perfectionist
Overthink what I did
Can't be good enough, only flawless
It's never enough if I'm honest
If I'm honest
But somehow I think that I could reach it
I don't need help, think that I could fix it
All by myself, I'm too scared to admit
Nothing I do is good enough for
My stubborn brain, it always wants more
I hope it will make sense one day
But until then, I will say
I'm a perfectionist
Something I can't resist
Working day and night
Yet it is still not right
I don't think I can quit
I always need more time
I'm a perfectionist
Overthink what I did
Can't be good enough, only flawless
It's never enough if I'm honest
If I'm honest
I've been feeling paralyzed

I always need more time
I'm a perfectionist
Overthink what I did
Can't be good enough, only flawless
It's never enough if I'm honest
If I'm honest
