A Perfect Picture

The perfect pictures on the wall that's you and I, it’s not the true meaning of us they are just pictures 
To everyone looking it's a perfect life but you and I know different they are just pictures hanging on a wall...our perfect little lie 
We just share a space...we are really strangers 
We just give the outer world the perfect image of us 
We live in a lie to keep our families happy...so everyone can smile 
I can't wait for this to end 
Then everyone will know there's no real perfect picture of us we are just good at pretending
The frame was broken long ago...there is no perfect image of us
