to be Perfect, look in theMirror

Contributed by Asatru on Monday, 28th June 2004 @ 07:08:04 PM in AEST
Topic: drugabuse

No one is perfect
Since they don't believe they are
They cant be
Because they all have room for perfection
But if you can look in a mirror
And smile at that person looking back at you
Perfect
Smile about who you are
And what you've done
Perfect
No one is perfect look in the mirror
And smile at everything you've done
And tell me your
Perfect
Now
Tell me your not ashamed
Of what you see in that mirror
Tell me your not ashamed
To be the person with a beer in your hand
And a pip in your mouth
Can you tell me
Your not ashamed to not be
Perfect
Why can't
Any of us be perfect
Uncorrupt the worl
Make her beautiful once more
Make her-Earth
Perfect
But no ont of us can be perfect
Including her
And if the mother cannot be
Perfect
How can her children
So look in that mirror once again
Look in your hand and tell me whats there
Look between your lips
And tell me whats there
Tell me about those scars
All up and down your
Non-perfect body
And tell me you have those
Because your not perfect
Because thats the reason
But what'd make you perfect again
What'd make you innocent again
I know what'd make you
Perfect once more
The answer is in that mirror
It's imbetween your lips
It's in your hand
It's all up and down your body
It's the fact that nothing is good enough for you
It's the fact that you tried to drown yourself
And soar high in the sky
All at the same time
The reason that your not
Perfect
Is the fact
That you don't want to be
Because if you wanted to be
You would spit that pip out of your mouth
You would throw that beer on the ground
And you never have created a single scar
On your once
Perfect
Body.
