You are the life and death of everything
I made you that
It's worth remembering
That I knew you long before we met
From a thousand misty dreams
I can't forget

Nobody's flawless
No one gets through without a single scar
I love you regardless
Of how ridiculous I know you are
But I will never open up my soul and take you in
Can't let you turn your back
Can't let you win
I won't do it
Cause I know you're on a mission
To wreck my sunny disposition

The truth be known, you are a metaphor
A parody of all I've waited for
The truth be known, you're a malady
You contaminate the purest part of me

Nobody's flawless
No one gets through without a single scar
I love you regardless
Of how ridiculous I know you are
But I will never open up my soul and take you in
Can't let you turn your back
Can't let you win
I won't do it
Cause I know you're on a mission
To wreck my sunny disposition

You were a trick of the shadows
The bending of light
An illusion
Fashioned from hopefulness
Your face is so sad now
No pretense in sight
I can see you naked, defective and fallible
And I don't belong here
It's dreary, foggy, and miserable

Nobody's flawless
No one gets through without a single scar
I love you regardless
Of how ridiculous I know you are
But I will never open up my soul and take you in
Can't let you turn your back
Can't let you win
I won't do it
Cause I know you're on a mission
To wreck my sunny disposition

You can't turn a dream into a master plan
Cause nobody's harmless
Except in dreams but on the other hand
If I had never fallen fast asleep and dreamed of you
I'd have never tried to make my dream come true
And believing, wondering
And wishing makes a sunny disposition
