Perfect - THE THE[00:00:00]
Written by:Matt Johnson/Matt Johnso[00:00:01]
It's a chilly english Winter[00:00:25]
And solitude is never easy to maintain[00:00:27]
Except when it rains[00:00:31]
So I hang an empty smile beneath my empty eyes[00:00:36]
And go out for a walk[00:00:39]
The wet morning Sun reflects off the paving stones[00:00:43]
While a little dog barks it's head off[00:00:47]
In the distance[00:00:50]
Oh what a perfect day[00:00:54]
To think about my silly world[00:00:59]
My feet are firmly screwed to the floor[00:01:02]
What is there to fear from such a regular world[00:01:06]
Oh what a perfect day[00:01:09]
To think about my silly world[00:01:13]
My feet are firmly screwed to the floor[00:01:16]
What is there to fear from such a regular world[00:01:20]
Passing by a cemetery[00:01:38]
I think of all the little hopes and dreams[00:01:39]
That lie lifeless and unfilled beneath the soil[00:01:42]
I see an old man fingering his perishing flesh[00:01:48]
He tells himself he was a good man and did good things[00:01:52]
Amused and confused by life's little ironies[00:01:56]
He swallows his bottle of distilled damnation[00:02:00]
People turn around with unseeing eyes[00:02:18]
They're looking for something that doesn't exist[00:02:21]
The world you once knew is being eaten up by rust[00:02:25]
No one has time for the past but still in god they trust[00:02:29]
The future is now but it's all going wrong[00:02:32]
Bodies good for nothing but it's to nothing they belong[00:02:36]
People say their prayers and some work hard[00:02:40]
If you give them all your money they'll give you their hearts[00:02:43]
This town ain't going like a ghost town[00:02:48]
It's going like hell[00:02:53]
Oh what a perfect day[00:02:58]
To think about my silly world[00:03:02]
My feet are firmly screwed to the floor[00:03:05]
What is there to fear from such a regular world[00:03:09]
Oh what a perfect day[00:03:13]
To think about my silly world[00:03:17]
My feet are firmly screwed to the floor[00:03:20]
What is there to fear from such a regular world[00:03:24]
Oh what a perfect day[00:03:27]
To think about my silly world[00:03:31]
My feet are firmly screwed to the floor[00:03:35]
What is there to fear from such a regular world[00:03:39]
Oh what a perfect day[00:03:42]
To think about my silly world[00:03:46]
My feet are firmly screwed to the floor[00:03:49]
What is there to fear from such a regular world[00:03:53]
