I'm tired of these misconceptions The expectation for perfection Everyone is pointed in the wrong direction I'm not perfect, but soon you'll begin to see That perfect is not the thing to be Because what is inside is the only explanation you could ever need Inconceivable mysteries hidden in the minds of young children They are the ones that see but do not expect perfection Innocence is what's inside And that's the beauty of it, you see In their beautiful, untainted minds Perfection is an idea that exists in everything Everything big, everything small Children see the beauty in it all Why can't we see from the eyes of children? That innocence is lost in the older generation We've seen the horror and pain Again and again We've got so caught up in drama and evil, that we no longer see the beauty and perfection It's a sad, sad thing that this world is coming to But children, they see right through
