Almost Perfect - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

And now school is no longer out

We’ve gotta head back to my hometown

I did get their numbers on the way out

The internet has ruined my life

I get attached when I make new friends, and I cry

Hating my own desperate attempts at a social life

I was almost perfect

But my best was not enough

I was almost perfect

What could I do, to seem cool to you

Like I did before, when we were together as one crew

I have a number of different reasons, why I act a fool

Banging my head on the wall ’til you make your move

I was almost perfect

But it never was enough

I was almost perfect

Imagine living a couple decades

Still acting like a child

When one feels abandoned, their emotions do run wild

I have to wake up tomorrow morning, knowing I could’ve did just right

The same mental baggage as I felt last night

I was almost perfect

And it never was enough

I know no one’s perfect

But I could’ve had a shot

I was almost perfect, I was almost perfect

But it never was enough

It never was enough

I was almost perfect

Oh, almost perfect
