[Verse 1]

I was frozen in a fragile world

Of make believe and empty lies (empty lies)

Twisting the rules

Of a virtuous game

And captured by the thought of fear

And loneliness afraid to cry (afraid to cry)

Suffocating

Trying to scream

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause I want out now

To find myself

[Chorus]

'Cause perfect only makes you crazy

There is no way that it could save me

I'm sick of feeling like a traitor

Is this the price for good behavior?

[Verse 2]

Oh my naked skin

Feels the warmth of the sun (of the sun)

My eyes are open

To the brightness of life

I'm driven by a force so free

To live this life not paralyzed (not paralyzed)

But with reckless abandon

So now I can breath

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause I wanted out

To find myself

[Chorus]

'Cause perfect only makes you crazy

There is no way that it could save me

I'm sick of feeling like a traitor

Is this the price for good behavior?

[Bridge]

Don't do this

Don't do that

You will be

Out abandoned

Don't do this

Don't do that

You will be

Out abandoned

[Chorus]

'Cause perfect only makes you crazy

There is no way that it could save me

I'm sick of feeling like a traitor

Is this the price for good behavior?
