Do you ever feel
Afraid of being yourself, afraid of asking for help?
Do you ever fear what others think about you?
The thoughts in my head won't ever go away
They're keeping me awake
This is too much to take alone
And what I'm trying to say
There's one thing I want you to know
I can't be what you expect of me
Can't you see?
You don't know how I feel
All the pain inside is fucking up my mind
Don't you realize that I can't be perfect
I can only dream of perfection
Those dreams will never come true
Chasing after shadow reflections
Won't be the person you knew
I don't want to feel
Afraid of being myself, afraid of asking for help
The distance in between will never be the same
How could I ever tell?
No one should be above
I can't go on this way or I think I will fall apart
Get this, I'm good enough
And that's all that you need to know
I can't be what you expect of me
Can't you see?
You don't know how I feel
All the pain inside is fucking up my mind
Don't you realize that I can't be perfect
I can only dream of perfection
Those dreams will never come true
Lost myself in fear of rejection
The need to gratify you
♪
Deep down I know it's not reality
Reckless daydreams killing my memories
I will never be, you will never be picture perfect
Will I ever see, will you ever see my true colors shine?
I gotta find myself in the ruins of disaster
I can't be what you expect of me
Can't you see?
You don't know how I feel
All the pain inside is fucking up my mind
Don't you realize that I can't be perfect
I can only dream of perfection
Those dreams will never come true
Chasing after shadow reflections
The need to gratify you
You know
I can't be perfect (you know)
I can't be perfect (you know)
I can't be perfect (you know)
I can't be perfect, you know
(I can't be perfect)
