Rise Against – Far From Perfect lyrics
[Verse 1]
Keeping up appearances, don't break now
We're buckled from the weight
Pretend to laugh, but don't laugh too loud

[Pre-Choorus]
Do you feel the pressure building?
The anger spilling out now
Meanwhile, the cracks have formed on the masks we've worn up 'til now

[Chorus]
We are far from perfect
But perfect as we are
We are bruised, we are broken
But we are goddamn works of art
Works of art

[Verse 2]
Pieces of our hearts are gravitating together but
Before we could be part of this mosaic

[Pre-Chorus]
We had to break apart like glass
We're falling faster than stars
Meanwhile, the cracks have formed on the masks we've worn up 'til now

[Chorus]
Take a look
We are far from perfect
But perfect as we are
We are bruised, we are broken
But we are goddamn works of art

[Bridge]
With every colour, we shine!
A tapestry of scars!
Without regret we're
Growing stronger and moving onward
Finding right ways, despite the wrong ones
We're clearing paths, we're locked by storms
We're finding the beauty
In what you've ignored

[Chorus]
We are far from perfect
But perfect as we are
We are far from perfect
We're perfect as we are
We are bruised, we are broken
But we are goddamn works of art
Yeah, we are perfect as we are
Perfect as we are
