They tell me, they tell me
They tell me, they tell me
Tell me
Perfect, tell me that I'm perfect, they do
Working, my life's not on track, how 'bout you?
Thought so too
So why's it so hard
To do this the right way?
Working so hard
But still feel behind, they say
Things aren't so bad
When you try it again
Second time is the charm
Then everyone says
You're perfect
You're my favorite, you're golden, you're worth it
Every compliment you deserve it
How could you ever feel broken? We notice
All we know is that you're perfect
They think I have it together, half true (ooh)
Burning, November but I smiled all through (for you)
Put on a pretty face
And no one asks questions
Take a break for a day
Then you're everyone's problem
And they don't cut you slack
So don't try this again
Smile through today
Then everyone says
You're perfect
You're my favorite, you're golden, you're worth it
Every compliment you deserve it
How could you ever feel broken? We notice
All we know is that you're perfect
Unspoken, feel hopeless
Not perfect
Please understand that I repress
The hurt'n, just listen
I get upset
But no all they say is that
You're perfect
You're my favorite, you're golden, you're worth it
Every compliment you deserve it
How could you ever feel broken? We notice
All we know is that you're perfect
Unspoken, I repress
Just listen
Please understand that
I'm not perfect
