you tell me I have to be perfect
that I can never let down my walls
No one should know what happens in my head
because you say my opinion doesn't matter at all
my true self remains behind your stone wall
you built it all for me brick by brick
here I stand beside you a lifeless doll
war raging in my head
you tell me
you nearly lost your perfect
you almost cracked your wall
when you of all people should know
I am not perfect at all
