Perfect As You

A Poem by Krista Weiss

Heyy this is a song I wrote a while ago about a couple in our grade that broke up over a really stupid thing. I'll explain below. Hope you like! The hidden message is: T and J (their first initials)

Perfect As You

Well I'm not perfect honey,

So you gotta accept me for me,

And if you don't like,

The way I look,

You can pack your bags right up,

And you'll never know,

You're not the cup of tea,

You expected yourself to be

I'm the best you've got,

You should be okay with that,

Cuz I'm the only girl,

Who will really love you for you,

So why'd you gotta break my heart,

Over something so silly,

Or was it just an excuse,

Cuz I'm not as perfect as you

Well what was going through your mind,

When you looked at me,

And you thought I wasn't the one,

And every other girl in the world,

Has the same problems as me,

But you will never know,

No you won't,

Baby, you'll never get it

I'm the best you've got,

You should be okay with that,

Cuz I'm the only girl,

Who will really love you for you,

So why'd you gotta break my heart,

Over something so silly,

Or was it just an excuse,

Cuz I'm not as perfect as you

Well honey why'd you leave me,

Over just one simple thing,

That can be changed,

In just as simple as that,

But honey that was your mistake,

Well I'll never take you back,

Until you get over it

I'm the best you've got,

You should be okay with that,

Cuz I'm the only girl,

Who will really love you for you,

So why'd you gotta break my heart,

Over something so silly,

Or was it just an excuse,

Cuz I'm not as perfect as you <3

Heyy :) soo I hope you like the song and this is the story behind it: So a guy and a girl in my grade were going out and he broke up with her because she had hairy arms.... freaking stupidest thing ever to break up with someone for! haha... so ya this guy was apparently "just soo hot!" and for some reason all the girls thought he was just amazing.... he's really not that attractive haha... but ya so apparently a few years ago he used to like me so i imagined like if i liked him back i could be where that girl is now. If I liked him I would have gone out with him for his personality, not for who he was on the outside so if he broke up with me for that incredibly stupid thing I would've been heartbroken. and I basically just took it from there and basically got the name from thinking like thats such an incredibly stupid reason to break up with someone it might have been an excuse... and ya hahah idk :P soo ya this is loong haha sorrryyy :)
