Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I was frozen in a fragile world
Of make believe and empty lies
Dressed in the rules of a virtuos game
Captured by the thought of fear and loneliness
Afraid to cry suffocated for trying to scream
And I want out now to find myself
Cause perfect only makes you crazy
There is no way that it can save me
I'm sick of feelin like a traitor
Is this the price for good behavior
Oh my naked skin feels the warmth of the sun
And my eyes are opened to the brightness of light
Driven by a force so free to live this life
Noy paralyzed but with reckless abandon
So now I can breathe I wanted out to find myself
I don't do this don't do that and you'll be
Oh so perfect II perfect, perfect
