Picture Perfect

Picture this a perfect life
Full of pleasantries and smiles
Airs and graces on display
That suits you in any case
Is this a blessing in disguise
You can run but you can't hide
From yourself this ball and chain
This is living your way

Ordinary works for some
But I was not prepared for this
The most complicated
Of scenario's played
Out to pretence

Formality has bred contempt
In all you have and all it's meant
Complacency will hold you dear
Become the king of your fear
You should bend before you break
Giving more or less to take
Exaggerate to the extreme
Live it up, but does it mean

Ordinary works for some
But I was not prepared for this
The most complicated
Of scenario's played
Out to pretence
Ordinary works for some
But I was not prepared for this
The most complicated
Of scenario's played
Out to pretence

It works for some but not for me

Ordinary in any case

Ordinary works for some
But I was not prepared for this
The most complicated
Of scenario's played
Out to pretence
