If I Were Perfect
Perfection
Was a thing never meant to be achieved
It wasn't until I met you that I believed...
Perfection
But to you, she is a flawless goddess
Lovely, beautiful, smart yet modest
You love her so much; so fucking much
I can hear the things you tell her; sweet nothings and such
How come I can't be your 'perfect girl'?
Why can I be that 'single one in the world'?
Maybe if I had more brains
And talk and talk about geniuses and their fame
Then maybe you'd find me more interesting
(And you'd feel my thoughts were worth a listening)
Maybe if I had deep emerald eyes
And the sight of them sent you to the skies
Then maybe you'd want to understand me more
(And let me through that tightly locked door)
Maybe if I were a bit skinnier
And my size a tad more mini-er
Then maybe you'd finally want to hold me
(And tell me how very much you loved me)
Maybe if I were fucking perfection
Then I wouldn't be lost and without direction
Perhaps I would stop hating myself
And step away before the next hand is dealt
Maybe if I were good enough for you
Then I wouldn't be stuck being number two
Maybe if I were to be exactly like her
Then I could get you to love me easier
But
I wouldn't feel this way...
If I were..
Fucking
Perfect
