[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?
