[Verse 1]

Reversal of despair

Bright young spark he showing flair

Loosens flesh from machine

Granted it obscene

Thrust his fists, fisting posts

Still insist he sees the ghost

Of what we try to see

Is darkened rooms and endless laughter

Lock into theories old

Existance of all creatures told

Human eyes to snatch a glimpse

Of our lifes genesis

Lust for knife, such is life

Love for every kind of strife

Angleworm bit in half

Fellow eaten raw and helpless


[Chorus]

Perfect it's not as easy to find

The good in ourselves that we leave behind

Forever sublime

And never quite comprehend

Why that is why we try and we try

Until do us die

To pull up the soil and plant greener seeds

Perfection an ultimate


[Verse 2]

Aiming high cannon my

Fear young failure to the sky

Confidence leaknesses dominate my mind

Out of blue into black

Ideas meets oblivion

Endless destructible

Delusions of defeat and anguish


[Chorus]

Perfect it's not as easy to find

The good in ourselves that we leave behind

Forever sublime

And never quite comprehend

Why that is why we try and we try

Until do us die

To pull up the soil and plant greener seeds

Perfection an ultimate


[Chorus]

Perfect it's not as easy to find

The good in ourselves that we leave behind

Forever sublime

And never quite comprehend

Why that is why we try and we try

Until do us die

To pull up the soil and plant greener seeds

Perfection an ultimate

Perfect it's not as easy to find

The good in ourselves that we leave behind

Forever sublime

And never quite comprehend

Why that is why we try and we try

Until do us die

To pull up the soil and plant greener seeds

Perfection an ultimate
