Picture perfect, that´s what it seems
They´ve got this whole thing figured out, but not me
We´ll leave this place behind, doesn´t that feel right?
Picture perfect, it´s picture perfect

Through the fire
Through the smoke and the flames
In my reflection in the window
Match in hand and I´m running

Everyone´s screaming "You´re never gonna get there"
Waking up shaking feels much better
And everyone´s saying "Shape up and get a life"
If nothing goes wrong then how will it feel right
Picture perfect doesn´t mean much to me

Is it true what they´re saying
I gotta settle down in place just like the rest
Living the dream, is this what it feels like?
Picture perfect, it´s picture perfect

The days are fading
Like they´re one in the same
I point the finger and it shows me
I´m to blame and I´m running

Everyone´s screaming "You´re never gonna get there"
Waking up shaking feels much better
And everyone´s saying "Shape up and get a life"
If nothing goes wrong then how will it feel right
Picture perfect doesn´t mean much to me

I´m saving up time to figure this out
But I can´t believe I´ve waited this long
I´ve seen the truth in another light
This is everything I never wanted to be

Wake up, shape up you´re never gonna get there
If nothing goes wrong then how would it feel right
Wake up, shape up you´re never gonna get there
It´s picture perfect, it´s picture perfect

Everyone´s screaming "You´re never gonna get there"
Waking up shaking feels much better
And everyone´s saying "Shape up and get a life"
If nothing goes wrong then how will it feel right
Picture perfect doesn´t mean much to me
