lyrics

Picture perfect seems like something to work for, something that's earnt or something to figure out and I've been thinking and you're taking advantage of everything that I've handed you and I've been trying for way too long
I guess I know where I stand

Is it just my luck, or do I think too much.
You keep holding off and it won't ever stop
and I'll keep running the race,
it's not what they say.
There's no such thing as a bad try.

Getting back to the point that you've been missing, there's no time for reminiscing (and I'm saying that) you're not right and I'm not wrong. You're mixing questions with the answers, I'm not getting what I want. So you make the choice and hope it's the right one, take your time and live with the outcome.
Now I guess I know where I stand

Nice try bad guys, better luck next time
It gets the best of me
