The Perfect Act
'Cause all who wonder are not lost
Through the warmth and through the frost..
I wanna be trapped with sweet relief
Trapped with a million belief..
'Cause remind me this once more
All that glitters is not gold..
I am no saint, I am not pure
Look into my eyes, it's just an allure..
So love me till all these last
Stop the future and forget the past..
Love me like winter, feel me like spring
When the rain starts to pour, give me your wings
The autumn will come and go, revealing me to you
Shedding my guard and ringing me true..
At summer we'll take the last breath and mend our heart
Promises of being together, till death do us part..
When the seasons wipe out and the light comes on
You end your act, and the mask's gone..
You smile, you go into her open arms
She's tall, perfect and all charms..
I look on, never losing a smile
Acting my part, a part so vile..
I put myself to an eternal sleep
As you sow, so shall you reap..
There are no complaints, absolutely none
I'll look after you, till the heavens drown thy sun.
