Everybody makes mistakes when they are young
I've had my chance to learn
Time to move on
Thought of you as more than just a friend
But some stories
Were meant to end

You're not perfect
You're not flawless
You're not beautiful
No, the one thing that was perfect
Were the lies you told

You're not perfect
You're not flawless
You're not beautiful
No, the one thing that was perfect
Were the lies you told

And every reason why
Was based on a lie
Every reason why
Was just a lie

Every reason why
Was based on a lie
Just a perfect lie

Took a chance on you, but took a fall
How can I trust again, and love at all
Thought of you as someone I could trust
But some games are meant to be lost

You're not perfect
You're not flawless
You're not beautiful
No, the one thing that was perfect
Were the lies you told

You're not perfect
You're not flawless
You're not beautiful
No, the one thing that was perfect
Were the lies you told

And every reason why
Was based on a lie
Every reason why
Was just a lie

Every reason why
Was based on a lie
(On a lie)
Just a perfect lie
(Just a perfect lie)
