- Perfect LyricsFalling a thousand feet per second, you still take me by surprise
I just know we can't be over, I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence, takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I was wrong
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
Making every kind of silence, it takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I wrong
I know that I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
When you're caught in a lie and you've got nothing to hide
When you've got nowhere to run and you've got nothing inside
It tears right through me, you thought that you knew me
You thought that you knew
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my, just myself
Just myself, myself, just myself
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
I just know we can't be over, I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence, takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I was wrong
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
Making every kind of silence, it takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I wrong
I know that I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
Was it something I said or just my personality?
When you're caught in a lie and you've got nothing to hide
When you've got nowhere to run and you've got nothing inside
It tears right through me, you thought that you knew me
You thought that you knew
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my, just myself
Just myself, myself, just myself
I'm not perfect, but I keep trying

When we think about the meaning behind each verse, Hedley's 'Perfect' takes a close look at the problem of holding onto a relationship no matter how imperfect it is, and uses the metaphor of falling to show the fear of not being able to let go. Perfect lyrics mainly talk about the issues of self-reflection, angst, heartbreak, love and despair. But the song at the same time mentions the very things it sets out to condemn namely the impossibility of being a perfect lover, fear of being alone, uncertainty in love and emotional turmoil and vulnerability. The lyrics present a mix of themes such as emotional struggle, self-reflection, and relationship challenges, which might be more appropriate for a mature audience. The language is not too strong and yet the emotional intensity and the allusions to personal flaws and imperfections give the impression of a PG rating for parental guidance.

Don't change for anyone, because your choices and who you are are a stronger bond than being perfect. Trying to be perfect is the realization that nobody is perfect :)

I'm not perfect. I will never be perfect. But you don't seem to understand that and keep pushing me closer to the edge. When will I fall? You nor I will ever know. Just remember that. I'm not perfect.

If you don't like this song,don't listen to it(in this case don't look up the lyrics) and don't mention Justin Bieber this has NOTHING to do with him, just enjoy it and get off of it if you don't.

I love a certain boy. I feel no matter what I do I won't be good enough, cause I know I'm not perfect, but I WILL keep trying; because for this boy I would do anything
