PERFECT (I KNOW)

I thought you were worth it
I knew you were perfect
You said you've been hurting
I thought this was working
I know it hurts when you look outside
I know you can't sleep with yourself at night
I know you would never care if I was alright
You just had to make sure I was on your side

Yeah I thought that I was special
But this hope leaves me unsettled
I spent months just in my head, I'm always thinking you're the devil
And in time we could've settled
Maybe I'm just fed up
Done with all the love letters
I just need to do better
But I can't accept the truth
That I shouldn't be with you
I've been down this road before
So trust me this was never new
Tell me how we'll get through
All the words that weren't true
I know I would be a liar if I said I loved you

Yeah it's hard to be myself
And I wish you could've helped
You just cared about yourself
In your lies you chose to dwell
You turned happiness to hell
It was always just a spell
I know you didn't love me and it wasn't hard to tell

I thought that you were worth my time
And I can't see through all your lies
I know it hurts to see me shine
But that's the way it goes this time
I never thought
That I would have to leave you
It's hard to watch
The way you let this brew
It's not what I want
Now it's done and through
I would say you're on my mind but I don't think about you

Because I know it hurts when you look outside
I know you can't sleep with yourself at night
I know you would never care if I was alright
You just had to make sure I was on your side
