Perfect
Topic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're not trying to change me
Even though I'm crazy

When it's all too much then you take me home
Wearing no make-up, think I'm beautiful
And when I'm all messed up, you let me be me

There's always gonna be somebody smarter
Someone prettier who works a little harder
Someone that who ain't afraid to take it farther
And everytime I feel like I ain't really worth it
Then you say I'm perfect
I know there's always gonna be somebody better
Someone easier who's got it all together
And everytime I feel like I ain't really worth it
Then you say I'm perfect

Then you say I'm perfect
Then you say I'm perfect

I know you never judge me
When I make it hard to love me

When it's all too much then you take me home
Wearing no make-up, think I'm beautiful
And when I'm all messed up, you let me be me

There's always gonna be somebody smarter
Someone prettier who works a litte harder
Someone that who ain't afraid to take it farther
And everytime I feel like I ain't really worth it
Then you say I'm perfect
I know there's always gonna be somebody better
Someone easier who's got it all together
And everytime I feel like I ain't really worth it
Then you say I'm perfect

Then you say I'm perfect
Then you say I'm perfect
Then you say I'm perfect

There's always gonna be somebody smarter
Someone prettier who works a little harder
Someone that who ain't afraid to take it farther
And everytime I feel like I ain't really worth it
Then you say I'm perfect
I know there's always gonna be somebody better
Someone easier who's got it all together
And everytime I feel like I ain't really worth it
Then you say I'm perfect

Then you say I'm perfect
You say, you say, you say, you oh oh
You say I'm perfect
Then you say I'm perfect
Ooh ooh
Then you say I'm perfect

Overall Meaning

The song "Perfect" by Topic & Ally Brooke is about feeling insecure and being afraid of not being good enough, and finding comfort in the person who loves you as you are. The first verse states that even though the singer is crazy, their partner is not trying to change them. Their partner accepts them, takes them home when they are overwhelmed, and makes them feel beautiful even without makeup. The chorus indicates the singer's insecurities by saying that there will always be someone better, smarter, and prettier than them. However, despite all that, their partner tells them that they are "perfect" and encourages them to see their worth.


The second verse reiterates that their partner never judges them, even when they are hard to love. The chorus repeats itself, indicating that the singer is still doubtful of their worth, and their partner is still there to remind them that they are "perfect." The song's message focuses on self-acceptance and finding someone who loves you despite your imperfections.


Overall, "Perfect" is a feel-good song that encourages people to love themselves and find comfort in their relationships. It tells us that even though we may feel inadequate and insecure, we are still loved and adored by the people who matter to us.
