Beauty is in the Eyes of the Imperfect

from Stabilize by Courtesy Drop

lyrics

oh, how'd i get so obsessed with flaw?
idolizing and idealizing it all
am i better or worse?

it's taken some time to adjust
and a great deal of work to combat the mistrust in my eyes

on again, off again
riddled with the regret from another time
climbing out ever so slowly

i've become immersed in all the missed brush strokes
the cracks and all of the wrinkles
the scars from tantrums that we've thrown

in time, perhaps we'll realize that it's simple
we're better as broken people
we'll stop holding onto hope for flawless

because in my eyes, in this life the only Hell really worth avoiding is perfection

i feel the most alive when it's all falling apart
