perfect from Unheld by Pale Haven
"perfect" is about the quiet violence of trying to be enough. It's a reflection on how striving for flawlessness can hollow out the parts of us that are most alive. It's not a clean song — it's an honest one, meant to sound as strained and human as the feeling it holds.

Lyrics
Future feels far when I'm distant
Dead and gone stars will glisten
When paradigms get shifted
It's all about perspective
Damn it all
Let me go
I'm feeling bent over everything
No fentanyl
I'm crawling and hauling flaws and sins
To scrape by another day until the end
I'm all out of patience and waiting for something to start
The mundane day after day unholy heart
Woah you don't have to find out
No there's a reason I'm away now
I do experiment on my mind
Even though I'm shaking in my boots at what I find
Born I was ready to ball out
I lost motivation along the route
Maybe there's more in the end I doubt
We'll find out eventually but argue now
I can't go on and believe that the god above isn't evil
I can't continue to read into reasons if they are meaningless
Like a nipple on a reality TV-show
We blur out things so natural
I'm here to contemplate
Stir up all your ways
Grew up kind of late
Yet remain unfazed
Automated faith
Automatic grade
Authentically great
Authoritarian face
