picture perfect - kim prefontaine lyrics

Loading...

i work hard and never stop
cause success is all i’ve got
it’s my whole identity
it’s what makes me me

getting rid of imperfections
and realistic expectations
other people’s opinion
dictating all of my actions

i’ve been this way all my life
it’s the only choice that i’ve had
the only acceptable option
was always hard work and exhaustion

so i’ve lost all control
in this mess of my own doing
it’s all going so fast
i’m having some trouble breathing

cause who am i if i’m not picture perfect?
who am i if i’m not what others want me to be?
who am i if i’m not what people think i am?
is that all that defines me?

who am i if i make a mistake?
who am i if only for a second i break
cause i’ve lost all control
and i’m trying to let go
cause i lose sight of who i am
if i’m not picture perfect
and no matter how hard i try
i feel like i can’t find a balance for it all
and i fear i lose my mind
cause i can’t seem to keep up
and soon i’m bound to fall

i fear i don’t avoid attacks
i might have to pull the breaks
do i choose success over my health?

but admitting there’s a problem
without having a solution
is a failure that i can’t allow

what if i could be more than just perfect?
what if all my flaws are what makes me unique?
what if picture perfect is overrated?
what if i allowed myself to be free?

maybe if i gave myself a break
i could take a look around
and realize that it’s all fake
that i’ve got it all wrong
everybody has their faults
if i just tried to understand
i’d have found that people are mistaken
picture perfect is just faking
to be something no one can be
and picture perfect isn’t me
