Perfect (original)

I shut my eyes, it takes me there
but its all just blackness staring back at me
but in this moment, if only I had
but in this moment, time is a memory

its not that hard to make believe
it let's me be real again
I wish it wasn't so hard to make believe
we're ready to face this

with open eyes, it takes me there
but it's all just blackness staring back at me
but in this moment, if only I had
but in this moment, time is the memory

It's not so hard to make believe
it let's me be real again
I wish it wasn't so hard to make believe
I'm ready to face this

I remember it all as perfect
gone with every day you smiled on me
was it then that my life was something
packed inside my faith in me

something's staining these ancient moments
someone's saying they weren't so perfect
I have a feeling my life was something
born and nothing real

from open eyes, it takes me there
but it's not just blackness staring back at me
but in this moment, happy I had
but in this moment, and it's a memory

it's not so hard
to make believe
it let's me be real again
I wish it wasn't so hard to make believe
I'm ready to face this

I remember it all as perfect
gone with every day you smiled on me
was it then that my life was something
packed inside my faith in me

something's staining these ancient moments
someone's saying they weren't so perfect
I have a feeling my life was something
born and nothing real

everything just breaks me up inside
come to draw me in and on my floor would find
I'm not ashamed of matters of this kind
to find a little passage just to crawl inside
crawled inside
