Perfection

Why do I keep blowing my shots?! I rehearse in front of the mirror but nothing comes of it
I've been waiting for over a year now despite my girlfriend
Don't worry she knows I still like you
But can someone send me a wish from up above telling her how I really feel?

Perfection is what we all seek but something we can never really achieve
The stars might tell me otherwise and never seem to tell me why
But I know I once existed as a different person
One of great ecstasy.
