Perfect
.hedley Lyrics

Falling a thousand feet per second, you still take me by surprise
Even though things are moving fast and changing quickly, you still manage to leave me in awe with your actions and decisions.

I just know we can't be over, I can see it in your eyes
I have a strong intuition that our relationship is not yet complete, and the way you look at me confirms it.

Making every kind of silence, takes a lot to realize
Being quiet and not expressing our thoughts and feelings can be difficult, and it takes time to understand the impact of our silence.

It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
Ending things can be much more difficult than beginning again, and it is often better to continue trying than to give up and pretend it never happened.

And as long as I can feel you holding on, I won't fall, even if you said I was wrong
As long as I know that you are there for me, I will not give up or fail, even if others try to bring me down or criticize my choices.

I'm not perfect, but I keep trying, 'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I am not flawless, but I promise to keep striving for improvement and progress, just as I have always aimed to do.

I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
If I am isolated and without companionship, I do not feel truly alive or fulfilled, so I am pleading with you to stay by my side.

Was it something I said or just my personality?
I am unsure if our distance is caused by something specific I said or if it has to do with my character as a whole, and I am searching for answers.

When you're caught in a lie and you've got nothing to hide, When you've got nowhere to run and you've got nothing inside, It tears right through me, you thought that you knew me
When I discover that you have been dishonest and vulnerable, unexpectedly lacking confidence, it is extremely upsetting and causes me great pain, as I believed I knew you inside and out.

I'm not perfect, but I keep trying, 'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start, I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave, Was it something I said or just my, just myself, Just myself, myself, just myself
I repeat my earlier sentiments, acknowledging my flaws but staying committed to growth, and pleading that you do not abandon our relationship. I question if my words or personality are behind our current struggles, but ultimately realize that it may simply be an issue with myself as an individual.
