The darkest days have come and gone
Still you shine for me
With a fragile frame I carry on
Cause with you I am free
You guard my Teflon heart

Cause then they take you apart
Deconstructing the pieces
Still lobbing the darts
While you're clogging the bleeding
And now you're starting to sway and they won't go away
Until you swear you're perfecting the art
Of being perfect from now on
Perfect from now on

I learn the stance to win the fight
To balance what I do
I cling to you with all my might
You take the punches too
The rounds about to start

And then they take you apart
Deconstructing the pieces
Still lobbing the darts
While you're clogging the bleeding
Now you're starting to sway and they won't go away
Until you swear you're perfecting the art
Of being perfect from now on
Perfect from now on
