So Perfect

She finds it hard to breathe
The reflection that she sees
Is not the girl she wants to be
And so
She's making up her face
She's trying to replace
The tears with the smile that she is famous for
And now
Surrounded by the lights
Everything's alright
She laughs and they're lining up to see it
Yeah she'll do anything
For her invisible soul to be seen

And we all fall for the dream
Playing larger than life on our tv screen
We can't see
Nothing can be
So perfect
And we all want to be loved
To be somebody everyone's thinking of
Can't you see
No one can be
So perfect

Now me
I'm taking out the trash
I'm scraping up the cash
It's killing me
I'm not the girl I want to be
And so
I practice my escape
I pray for better days
I'm tired
But I'm damned if I'll be here forever
Now
I'm searching for the lights
Where everything's alright
And it's me
They'll be lining up to see
Yeah I'll do anything
My invisible soul to be seen

And we all fall for the dream
Playing larger than life on our tv screen
We can't see
Nothing can be
So perfect
And we all want to be loved
To be somebody everyone's thinking of
Can't you see
No one can be
So perfect

When finally
We reveal reality
Illusions come crashing down
It's insanity
That we could be a novelty
Just to feel
We're not alone...

And we all fall for the dream
Playing larger than life on our tv screen
We can't see
Nothing can be
So perfect
And we all want to be loved
To be somebody everyone's thinking of
Can't you see
No one can be
So perfect

Nothing can be so perfect

I'll never be so perfect
