Perfect World

All we shared was a mattress, and a lie, and an address

Baby I don't need you, well baby I don't need you

Once occupied by a goddess, now it's a room full of boxes

She said, "it's time to leave you" but baby I don't need you!

In a perfect world... her face would not exist

In a perfect world... a broken heart is fixed

In a perfect world... I'd see no therapist

In a perfect world... this wouldn't make me sick

I never got the whole story, not 'til after she left me

Baby I don't need you, well baby I don't need you

Word on the street is she fucked him, while we were playing in Cleveland

Well baby I don't need you, you're fading in my rearview

In a perfect world... her face would not exist

In a perfect world... a broken heart is fixed

In a perfect world... I'd see no therapist

In a perfect world... this wouldn't make me sick

She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!

She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!

In a perfect world... her face would not exist

In a perfect world... this wouldn't make me sick!

Reset my memory!

In a perfect world... her face would not exist

In a perfect world... a broken heart is fixed

In a perfect world... I'd see no therapist

In a perfect world... this wouldn't make me sick

She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!

She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!

She pulls the trigger until the gun goes click!

She pulls the trigger until the gun goes...
