Perfect my appearance, Perfect what I say. Fake a pretty smile, Until the act starts to fray. Make a little 'Sorry', My new favorite word. Apolagise to the me, Society would have preferred. Make constant mistakes, Though I never learn. Stumbling through life, Taking all the wrong turns. Which way is right? What did you expect? Look what has happened, When I tried to be perfect. I'm hurting all the wrong people, Because I build up the pain. I don't let it out, Instead I burn in the rain.

Burning Out
Perfect my appearance, Perfect what I say. Fake a pretty smile, Until the act starts to fray. Make a little 'Sorry', My new favorite word. Apolagise to the me, Society would have preferred. Make constant mistakes, Though I never learn. Stumbling through life, Taking all the wrong turns. Which way is right? What did you expect? Look what has happened, When I tried to be perfect. I'm hurting all the wrong people, Because I build up the pain. I don't let it out, Instead I burn in the rain.
