"a perfect world"

we've been lying long enough
so tell the truth to yourself for once:
admit that you've got nothing in your heart for me,
for real

it's not easy to tell you off
I love you more than I've ever loved
and I still can't quite figure out why we can't seal the deal

in a perfect world,
I am perfect for you
you are perfect for me

in a perfect world,
we are perfectly sure:
this is meant to be

a perfect world

but the world we're in
has built a wall between
and we can dream about it
but we'll never wake up in

a perfect world

we both share a recurring dream
where we're together eternally
it always seemed our lives would just keep building
to that point

but that's exactly the point of it
we've built a building where we can't fit,
and I'm so sick of building it
let's just burn the whole damn joint

in a perfect world,
I am perfect for you
you are perfect for me

in a perfect world,
we are perfectly sure:
this is meant to be

a perfect world

but the world we're in
has built a wall between
and we can dream about it
but we'll never wake up in

a perfect world

you and I are a perfect fit.
and I just want to give in to it.
I want to just rededicate my life

to this denial

but somehow that's how it never works
our best intentions create the worst
and if our hearts
are ruined now,
at least we lived a while in a perfect world

I am perfect for you.
You are perfect for me.

In a perfect world: we know perfectly well,
this is meant to be a perfect world.

But the world we're in has built a wall between,
and we can dream about it,

but we'll never wake up in
a perfect world.
