Perfect Example Lyrics

The taste of your kindness

Just a touch of the hem

Can it break all this silence

Stop me bleeding again

I'm a perfect example

I'm full of myself

Climbed this mountain made of my good intentions

Till I slipped and broke apart as I fell

So high, cause I can't come down again

Woke up, now I'll never fall asleep

Second guessing every little decision I made

Scared of falling in with the sheep that I've been counting

Am I smarter than you are

I'll pretend that I am

Shrug off my mistakes and

Say they were made with intent

I'm a little bit broken

I'm rotten and raw

Made you think I had my pieces together

I'll correct you when you walk out the door

So high, cause I can't come down again

Woke up, now I'll never fall asleep

Second guessing every little decision I made

Scared of falling in with the sheep that I've been counting

Lift me up like a newborn offering

Spill myself into every single word that I sing

And hope to God at the end of the night

You still want me and the burdens I bring

I can't say that I'm sorry

Cause I know that to lie is to sin

But all that I'm worth is what you say I am

I can't say that I'm sorry

Cause I know that to lie is to sin

But all that I'm worth is what you say I am

I can't say that I'm sorry

Cause I know that to lie is to sin

Cause I know that to lie is to sin

But all that I'm worth is what you say I am

I can't say that I'm sorry

Cause I know that to lie is to sin
