You invest time Money, and mind Soul and heart But in the end All you see Is love broke apart You try your hardest You give your all But it never will safice So why try Why push ahead When every step Is a sacrifice You do everything With perfection Trying hard not to offend You do so great Perfection really Then you fall off the deepest end Your mind goes dark Your thoughts become fear And never do you mend Your unconscious thoughts Your fear of loneliness Have now appeared Be her friend Let her grow close The demons all sneered But then those demons They have won They applauded and cheered You've been left Abandoned Alone A powerful light A beacon of hope That had once shone Now dead in the tower Hides above Never to walk bellow You have tried You gave your all But even perfection Is only third best Is this a test? To try my worth? To check where my faith lies? If so why have You left? The temple gone The millenium far Unhearing to their cries

Perfection Is Too Little
You invest time Money, and mind Soul and heart But in the end All you see Is love broke apart You try your hardest You give your all But it never will safice So why try Why push ahead When every step Is a sacrifice You do everything With perfection Trying hard not to offend You do so great Perfection really Then you fall off the deepest end Your mind goes dark Your thoughts become fear And never do you mend Your unconscious thoughts Your fear of loneliness Have now appeared Be her friend Let her grow close The demons all sneered But then those demons They have won They applauded and cheered You've been left Abandoned Alone A powerful light A beacon of hope That had once shone Now dead in the tower Hides above Never to walk bellow You have tried You gave your all But even perfection Is only third best Is this a test? To try my worth? To check where my faith lies? If so why have You left? The temple gone The millenium far Unhearing to their cries
