[Verse 1]
I'd like to set a standard I'll never reach
'Cause shooting for the stars is all they preach
The only thing that sucks more that letting yourself down
Is trying to save a shipwreck until you drown
(I just wanna be perfect)
[Chorus]
I think I hate myself
But maybe I, maybe I just hate this song
I think I hate myself
But maybe it's 'cause I'm fed up and I'm
Over overthinking
I'm so damn indecisive
Maybe I am, maybe I'm not
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
I just wanna be perfect
[Verse 2]
It's all or nothing when my mind has tunnel vision
With no direction thanks to indecision
The only thing that keeps me from self-destruction
Is my own battle with procrastination
(I just wanna be perfect)
But I don't deserve it
[Chorus]
I think I hate myself
But maybe I, maybe I just hate this song
I think I hate myself
But maybe it's 'cause I'm fed up and I'm
Over overthinking
I'm so damn indecisive
Maybe I am, maybe I'm not
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
I just wanna be perfect
[Bridge]
I know I might be insane
For trying to save a dying flame
Telling me I'll never live the dream
Is putting out the match with gasoline
[Chorus]
I think I hate myself
But maybe I, maybe I just hate this song
I think I hate myself
But maybe it's 'cause I'm fed up and I'm
Over overthinking
I'm so damn indecisive
Maybe I am, maybe I'm not
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
I just wanna be perfect
(Na na na, nana nana na na...)
I just wanna be perfect
(Na na na, nana nana na na...)
I just wanna be perfect
