Picture perfect, that's what it seems
They've got this whole thing figured out, but not me
We'll leave this place behind, doesn't that feel right?
Picture perfect, it's picture perfect

Through the fire
Through the smoke and the flames
In my reflection in the window
Match in hand and I'm running

Everyone's screaming "You're never gonna get there"
Waking up shaking feels much better
And everyone's saying "Shape up and get a life"
If nothing goes wrong then how will it feel right
Picture perfect doesn't mean much to me

Is it true what they're saying
I gotta settle down in place just like the rest
Living the dream, is this what it feels like?
Picture perfect, it's picture perfect

The days are fading
Like they're one in the same
I point the finger and it shows me
I'm to blame and I'm running

Everyone's screaming "You're never gonna get there"
Waking up shaking feels much better
And everyone's saying "Shape up and get a life"
If nothing goes wrong then how will it feel right
Picture perfect doesn't mean much to me

I'm saving up time to figure this out
But I can't believe I've waited this long
I've seen the truth in another light
This is everything I never wanted to be

Wake up, shape up you're never gonna get there
If nothing goes wrong then how would it feel right
Wake up, shape up you're never gonna get there
It's picture perfect, it's picture perfect

Everyone's screaming "You're never gonna get there"
Waking up shaking feels much better
And everyone's saying "Shape up and get a life"
If nothing goes wrong then how will it feel right
Picture perfect doesn't mean much to me
