I Was Perfect The Way I Was

i was perfect the way i was

i was perfect just the way i was

before your filthy fingertips got a hold of my heart

and your cruel intentions blinded me

i was perfect the way i was

before you treated my love for you like an island

your favorite vacation spot

that place you only visited to get your mind off what was going on in your real world

i was perfect the way i was

before i fell

and you didnt even look around to see if i was beside yo

nontheless behind you

i was perfect the way i was

before i let you come

and lead me astray

i started to hate myself

cuz i wasnt what you wanted

looked at every girl to see who i could become to make you want me

i was perfect the way i was

before you

until you

helped me realize

i am perfect the way i am.
