Cracked Perfection

It’s never easy – being you.
And who is that anyway?
People are so quick to challenge
Everything you do, or say.

Coz I’m just cracked perfection
Only human after all,
Beneath this amazing, fragile façade
I cry and hurt and fall.

We all create personas,
Who people think they know,
This makes it harder just to be
Us, wherever we go.

Coz I’m just cracked perfection
Only human after all,
Beneath this amazing, fragile façade
I cry and hurt and fall.

Years go by, the cracks appear,
Convince myself it’s over.
New life, a much happier me,
No stress of friend or lover.

Coz I’m just cracked perfection
Only human after all,
Beneath this amazing, fragile façade
I cry and hurt and fall.

But now I’m sinking in those cracks,
Falling into my mind’s black hole,
Friends just watch in sadness
As I start to lose my soul.

Coz I’m just cracked perfection,
And they’ll have to face that fact,
Beneath this amazing, fragile façade
My mood inside is black.
