Love & Perfectionism Lyrics

Weighed down, hunched over, tiny shuffle steps

Cradling an armful of cardiac mess

That you made from piling mistakes some months ago

Head down, keep walking, tryna keep the pace

That you set in this fairytale race

To our happy dream forever home

You never saw the heartbreak that you caused

Til I was hurt enough to point it out

But I knew you were worth saying it too

And since then you've tried so hard

I find it hard to receive in love but you keep showing me we'll work it out

We've grown, we're learning, I'm trying to let it go

Time heals but damn it moves slow

Wish I had longer seeing the 'perfect partner' glow around you

But we're real, we're breathing, we're made of flesh and bones

We find perfect despicable, I

think I might love you more for trying to love me better often

Cause

You never saw the heartbreak that you caused

Til I was hurt enough to point it out

But I knew you were worth saying it to

And since then, you've tried so hard

I find it hard to know the difference, is it standards or beyond a human love?

Love and perfectionism

Like some kind of masochism

Lock me up inside your prison and give me all you got

Love is only a decision

Die for you or nihilism

You are something more than my troubled heart

Love and perfectionism

Like some kind of masochism

Lock me up inside your prison and give me all you got

Love is only a decision

Die for you or nihilism

You are something more than my troubled heart

You're all I got
