Death By Perfection by Maia Sharp Lyrics

Death By Perfection by Maia Sharp Lyrics

He shook his head and said
we see a lot of this
but it's still so sad
it was done at the hands of someone
who didn't know what they had

Used to be so innocent and wild
with a light all it's own
this tragedy could've been avoided
if they'd just left it alone

But no they took something beautiful
straightened the curves and they filled in the cracks
'til it was unrecognizable
they shined it refined it
until they could see their own reflection
death by perfection

He said come here and let me show you what I've found
you see these lines
there was a struggle and then a surrender
it's got all of the signs

I said it could've lead a revolution
but they kept in a cage
he smiled as if he was listening
and I initialed the page

Oh they took something beautiful
straightened the curves and they filled in the cracks
'til it was unrecognizable
they shined it refined it
until they could see their own reflection
it could only be death by perfection

I'm flawed and wide open to rejection
it doesn't sound so glamorous I know
but better that than bend to their perception
'cause what I just saw that's no way to go

Oh they took something beautiful
straightened the curves and they filled in the cracks
'til it was unrecognizable
they shined it refined it
until they could see their own reflection
death by death by...
death by perfection
