Album: Downtown Battle Mountain Pt. II (2011)

Perfect

Start out as something beautiful
Hold out for something unreal
but don't hold your breath because
I'm all that's left.

Say that I'm gone, so you walk away.

Like I was once willing to admit you're perfect
Now the words they stutter off my lips
I was once willing to admit you were perfect.

And all my dreams hold out on my knees
Hold out, I'm all in
I can't bet, I can't win
Save it all for the end.

Hey, and now let's not pretend you really want to go down,
Hey, now let's not pretend.
Save it all, pretend you didn't want to go down,
Hey, now let's not pretend.

I was once willing to admit you're perfect
Now the words they stutter off my lips
I was once willing to admit you were perfect.
