Song Lyrics

Made a wrong turn, once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that's alright
Welcome to my silly life

Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss knowing it's all good, it didn't slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing
Under estimated, look, I'm still around

Pretty, pretty please
Don't you ever, ever feel
Like your less than less then perfect
Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like your nothing
You are perfect to me

You're so mean,
When you talk about yourself, you are wrong
Change the voices in your head
Make them like you instead

So complicated,
Look how big you'll make it!
Filled with so much hatred
Such a tired game
It's enough, I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same
Oh, pretty, pretty please
Don't you ever, ever feel
Like your less than less than perfect
Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing
You are perfect to me

The whole world stared so I swallowed the fear,
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in line and we try, try, try,
But we try too hard, it's a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics, 'cause they're everywhere
They don't like my jeans, they don't get my hair
We change ourselves and we do it all the time

Why do we do that? Why do I do that?
(Why do I do that?)

(Yeah, oh pretty pretty please, oh)

Pretty, pretty please
Don't you ever, ever feel
Like your less than less than perfect
Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing
You are perfect to me

You're perfect, you're perfect
Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing
You are perfect to me
