I'm not as perfect

As I know I can be

I've been deserted

I've been cast out to sea

What can you do

When the world seems to be laughing at you

What can you do

When the world is looking down on you

It's a long way down

When you're headed for the bottom

And I can see it now

I just had to hit the ground

From the ashes I rise

I'm coming back alive

Like a phoenix I'm just waiting to die

I'll be a halo in the sky

I'm learning how to fly

Like a phoenix I'm just waiting to die

Waiting to die

I can't lift my head up

It's like i'm dying inside

I'm dying inside

And I'm so scared

Maybe I'm such a loser

I'm pullin' it out

Pullin' it out my hair

Whats a girl to do

When her reflection is the ugly truth

Whats a girl to do

When her song is someone elses tattoo

It's a long way down

When you're headed for the bottom

And I can see it now

I just had to hit the ground

From the ashes I rise

I'm coming back alive

Like a phoenix I'm just waiting to die

I'll be a halo in the sky

I'm learning how to fly

Like a phoenix I'm just waiting to die

Waiting to die

Standing on the edge

Looking towards the sun

If I let go

I know I can be beautiful

Standing on the edge

Looking towards the sun

If I let go

I know I can be beautiful

From the ashes I rise

I'm coming back alive

Like a phoenix I'm just waiting to die

I'll be a halo in the sky

I'm learning how to fly

Like a phoenix I'm just waiting to die

Waiting to die

I'm just waiting to die

I'm just waiting to die
