Perfect...

Have you ever realized that things will never change?
The destruction that will never be lifted,
The wishes that will never come to be,
And the promises that will never be kept;
All the while,
You're wishing you could be someone else.

The scars will never be erased,
And the reasons for all that
Were the emotions all along,
While you just sat there...
Wishing you could be someone else;
Someone who knew all the right things to say and do,
Someone who could erase all the worries left behind,
Someone who knew better.....

All the words that may have been spoken are gone,
And whatever that was said is buried inside,
Where no one can reach and mend.

Sometimes goodbye will never be for the better.
And all the while
You wish you could be someone else for a day,
Just a day.....
And pick up all the pieces....
Rebuild the bridges burned overtime....

I broke that little glass rose you gave me,
It meant nothing after a while...
I tore down your paintings of me,
They were never genuine...
Somehow I got caught up
In between your lies and promises,
And then everything seemd to be shattering
All around me.

The illusions that were always there,
Your words that could never amount up to anything.
All the while,
I kept on wishing I was someone else;
Someone who knew all the things to make it all better,
Someone who knew all the right things to do and say,
Someone perfect.....
