I'm the most responsible girl that I know
Never late, always on time for the show
Ask anyone around me
And they'll tell you just how I am, yeah

I try to tell the truth every chance that I get
I never let the work I'm doing get to my head
And when it came to love
I thought I gave it the best I had, yeah

But somewhere I missed, somewhere I slipped
Somewhere, there's a couple steps that I skipped
Somehow, I told myself I didn't need anyone

But look at me now
I was so busy telling everyone
How good life is now that you're gone
I was so happy being out on my own
So, why do I feel so alone?
How could I get this all wrong?
I guess that 'Little Miss Perfect'
Wasn't that perfect after all

Now everything around me feels out of place
Like all four walls are closing in and there's no escape
Everyday I spent without you it gets harder to act like I'm okay
If I could take back the things that I said
If I could un-break everything that we had
I'd put all the pieces back together again, oh

But look at me now
I was so busy telling everyone
How good life is now that you're gone
I was so happy being out on my own
So, why do I feel so alone?
How could I get this all wrong?
I guess that 'Little Miss Perfect'
Wasn't that perfect after all

Now all that I know was all crashing down
And it's the biggest shock to me
'Cause I thought I had it all figured out
So, why does my heart feel empty? Oh

I thought it was perfect
But it wasn't so perfect

But look at me now
I was so busy telling everyone
How good life is now that you're gone
I was so happy being out on my own
So, why do I feel so alone?

I was so busy telling everyone
How good life is now that you're gone
I was so happy being out on my own
So, why do I feel so alone?
How could I get this all wrong?
I guess that 'Little Miss Perfect'
Wasn't so perfect after all
