Starting (start out?) as something beautiful
hold out for something unreal
but don't hold your breath
because i'm all that's left

stay home? well I've gone
so you walk away

I was once willing to admit you're perfect
now the words, they stutter off my lips
well I was once willing to admit you were perfect, perfect.

and all my dreams
hold out on my needs
hold out, i'm all in
i can't bet, i can't win
save it all for the end

hey now let's not pretend you didn't want to go down
hey now let's all pretend
save it all, pretend you didn't want to go down
hey now, let's all pretend

I was once willing to admit you're perfect
now the words they stutter off my lips
I was once willing to admit you were perfect, perfect.

    Lyric Correction:It says "Start out" in the beginning
    And instead of "stay home well I would" it's "say that I'm gone"
    "knees" instead of "needs" after the chorus
    The second to last verse confuses me so we can stick to that xDD
