I Am Not Perfect
Sometimes, I work carefully taking my time but I still make mistakes and that’s okay
Sometimes, I work carefully taking my time but I still make mistakes and that’s okay
When you mess up When you let yourself down The hardest thing to do is to move on
I've watched you weep for burned bridges Long for times now long gone I've seen you cringe under accusing eyes Clinging to the past, unable to let go
I stand in a forest, a million paths in front of me Each one a different choice, a different person I could be
I've taken roads I thought were bright But those only brought another plight
Some paths were dark and full of fear, But in the end, they brought me here
(Told from the perspective of Princess from Girl in Red)
I used to be weak and small All I ever did was fall I wanted a fairy tale Even though I always fail I think I can do it
Every time I make a mistake That mistake creates another vulture circling Hanging there, waiting To remind me of that time I was less than I could be
Your humor used to bring people together You spoke of family, of kids growing up in tough times We laughed with you about it Never knowing with whom we were laughing
