Perfect World
The Gossip Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I put a wish in
Made it my mission
To end the conflict
But oh
I put a wish in
Hoping you'd listen
By my accomplice
Relax, its only dreaming facts
Giving way to feelings
No one ever stays long
its over when you wake up
So I knew that it was
in the Picture perfect world
We can be more than before
I said it was
I made it stronger
From the beginning
My head was spinning
The perfect star
Oh a church
A place to fit in
A new religion
I found your heart
But oh oh
Relax, its only dreaming facts
Giving way to feelings
no one ever stays long
its over when you wake up
So I knew that it was
in the Picture perfect world
we can be more than before
I said it was
I made it stronger
In a Picture perfect world
In the Picture perfect world
we can be more than before
I said it was
I made it stronger
Dont get mad
You did your best
and now its
all in the past to stay
so I knew that it was
in the Picture perfect world
we can be more than before
I said it was
I made it stronger
in the Picture perfect world
we can be more than before
I said it was
I made it stronger

Oh oh and I
I had a wish and a plan
I put a wish in
I made a wish
Made it my mission
I set it as my goal
To end the conflict
To put an end to the disagreement
But oh
Unfortunately
Hoping you'd listen
I wished you would hear me out
By my accomplice
With the help of somebody else
Relax, its only dreaming facts
Don't worry, it's just wishful thinking
Giving way to feelings
Allowing emotions to take over
No one ever stays long
Nothing lasts forever
its over when you wake up
It's gone when you realize it was just a dream
So I knew that it was in the Picture perfect world
I understood it was an idealistic vision of the world
We can be more than before
We can improve ourselves
I said it was
I claimed it to be
I made it stronger
I reinforced my belief
From the beginning
Since the start
My head was spinning
I was confused
The perfect star
The ideal symbol
Oh a church
A place of worship
A place to fit in
A place to belong
A new religion
A novel belief system
I found your heart
I discovered your genuine feelings
Dont get mad
Don't be upset
You did your best
You tried your hardest
and now its all in the past to stay
And now it's over and done with

I was at her concert in 2012. Her voice is HUGE. So clear, pleasant and powerful. 50 times stronger live than on a record. This made me think about other performers.
@karamazigh
So true!
@jacobcantrell5640
Beth, since I was 12 you've made me stronger. Your sound, your words, your kindness. I look up to you, and you've shaped me more than most! Love you boo!
@bluestrife28
Beth’s voice came to me at a time I really needed it and this song still makes me cry by association. THANK YOU GOSSIP!!!!
@heike6030
Eine wundervolle Stimme, so klar und kräftig. Leider hört man in Deutschland nicht mehr viel von ihr. Find ich sehr schade
@TobaccoPS
This song was for me the final push to leave Jehovas Withnesses. The people made me feel really bad and i felt horrible allthe time. I dont know why, but this song really spoke to me. Thank you for this song! It changed my life <3
