Perfect
Embracing Imperfection: A Musical Ode to Real Love
Lyrics
Today was a perfect day
Expressing satisfaction with the day
The skies melted into gray
Describing a change in the weather to a less pleasant state
But we were all alone
Highlighting the feeling of solitude
I missed you when we talked over the phone
Expressing a sense of longing during a phone conversation
I want to listen to you talk forever
Expressing a desire to hear the other person speak indefinitely
Your smile so wide and your humor so clever
Complimenting the other person's wide smile and clever humor
And I never feel as happy as when I’m with you
Describing the happiness felt when in the presence of the other person
The world is empty right now it’s just us two
Emphasizing a moment of togetherness in a seemingly empty world
And I don’t think that I’ve told you
Expressing a feeling of not fully expressing the importance of the other person
Everything you mean to me
Acknowledging the need to communicate the depth of emotions
How you stayed by my side
Appreciating the other person's loyalty and support
Time and time again and you see
Reflecting on the consistent presence of the other person
That I’m not a perfect person
Admitting personal imperfection
I’m barely even good
Expressing self-doubt and a low self-assessment
But perfection's overrated anyway
Rejecting the societal emphasis on perfection
And I know this isn’t what I’m supposed to say
Acknowledging a departure from societal expectations
I need to have more trust in myself
Recognizing the need for self-trust
But perfect is a fucking dumb word anyway
Rejecting the concept of perfection as foolish
If you think that you are then you’re not
Challenging the idea that anyone can be perfect
And I know this isn’t what I’m supposed to say
Reiterating a departure from societal expectations
I need to have more trust in myself
Acknowledging the need for self-trust
But perfect is a fucking dumb word anyway
Rejecting the concept of perfection as foolish
It can only describe you
Highlighting the uniqueness of the other person
And I don’t think that I’ve told you
Reiterating the feeling of not fully expressing the importance of the other person
Everything you mean to me
Acknowledging the need to communicate the depth of emotions
How you stayed by my side
Appreciating the other person's loyalty and support
Time and time again and you see
Reflecting on the consistent presence of the other person
That I’m not a perfect person
Admitting personal imperfection
I’m barely even good
Expressing self-doubt and a low self-assessment
But perfection's overrated anyway
Rejecting the societal emphasis on perfection
And I know this isn’t what I’m supposed to say
Acknowledging a departure from societal expectations
I need to have more trust in myself
Recognizing the need for self-trust
But perfect is a fucking dumb word anyway
Rejecting the concept of perfection as foolish
If you think that you are then you’re not
Challenging the idea that anyone can be perfect
And I know this isn’t what I’m supposed to say
Reiterating a departure from societal expectations
I need to have more trust in myself
Acknowledging the need for self-trust
But perfect is a fucking dumb word anyway
Rejecting the concept of perfection as foolish
It can only describe you
Highlighting the uniqueness of the other person
