Title:
“Illusion of Perfection”
Full Song Lyrics – “Illusion of Perfection”:
(Verse 1)
[C] Looking at the mirror
[G] Seeing only flaws
[Am] Tired of the struggle
[F] Against societal laws
[C] Striving for perfection
[G] In a world that’s not quite right
[Am] Seeking for answers
[F] In the middle of the night
(Chorus)
[Dm] The illusion of perfection
[G] Is a road that leads nowhere
[Am] We are the imperfect question
[C] Dare to ask, dare to bare
(Verse 2)
[C] We are the voices unheard
[G] The dreamers and the thinkers
[Am] We question the perfect world
[F] And the reality it tinkers
(Chorus)
[Dm] The illusion of perfection
[G] Is a path of endless despair
[Am] We are the imperfect question
[C] Dare to ask, dare to dare
(Bridge)
[Em] So let’s break the perfect mirror
[Am] And reveal the truth inside
[Dm] In the reflection of our imperfections
[C] Is where real beauty resides
(Chorus)
[Dm] The illusion of perfection
[G] Is the greatest of all lies
[Am] We are the imperfect question
[C] Dare to ask, dare to break the ties
