I need to be spotless
Shining flawless
Beautiful and fun in every single way
I need to be happy, charming, confident, and
Humble every single Goddamn day
I wish I was perfect
I wish I was perfect, oh
I wish I was perfect, oh
Please just don't throw me away
Can you look at me now?
I tried so hard to be something that I'm proud of
Can you please just tell me I'm not broken, ugly, messed up
Deep down to my soul, that I can't control
I spent all my days and nights all worried
That I'd never be loved and you saw through me
You realized how pathetic I really am
This mess made of diamonds holds a twisted, broken man
I need to be spotless
Shining flawless
Beautiful and fun in every single way
I need to be happy, charming, confident, and
Humble every single Goddamn day
I wish I was perfect
I wish I was perfect, oh
I wish I was perfect, oh
Please just don't throw me away
Ooo-oh
Sometimes I can't breathe and I feel so damn disconnected
I can't speak, I'm just not interested
Oh, is something wrong with me?
I've bruised, and bled, and broken bones so you would talk to me
Am I simply doomed to constantly need your approval?
You get bored and leave, that's not unusual
Oh, I can't get mad at you
I've thrown my feelings out so I can be of use to you
I need to be spotless
Shining flawless
Beautiful and fun in every single way
I need to be happy, charming, confident, and
Humble every single goddamn day
I wish I was perfect
I wish I was perfect, oh
I wish I was perfect, oh
Please just don't throw me away
(I try to be perfect)
