Why can't it be perfect?
This love's not even real.
Why don't I cry for you?
Love was dead from the start.

I don't want you, I don't need you, I'll forget you
It doesn't matter.
I'll play along, writing our song, we are perfect
I love you.

No, this is all wrong
Why aren't you gone?
I know you're not that strong.
Don't listen to me, we'll always be
So perfectly
Happy.

The lies you succumb to
Blissfully unaware
I don't know how you can't see through my
Facade

I don't want you, I don't need you, I'll forget you
It doesn't matter.
I'll play along, writing our song, we are perfect
I love you.

No, this is all wrong
Why aren't you gone?
I know you're not that strong.
Don't listen to me, we'll always be
So perfectly
Happy.

And maybe one day I'll
Get to see your smile
In the arms of someone
Who loves you like I do

I don't want you, I don't need you, I'll forget you
It doesn't matter.
I'll play along, writing our song, we are perfect
I love you.

No, this is all wrong
Why aren't you gone?
I know you're not that strong.
Don't listen to me, we'll always be
So perfectly
Happy.
