Lyrics
[Verse] They told me sit down, be quiet, be good, Follow the rules like a good kid should. No one asked what I wanted, or how I felt, Just behave and blend in, play the hand I was dealt. Growing up under watchful eyes, Learning early to play my disguise. [chorus] i gotta be perfect or else i die that is my mantra since I was child never good enough never really feel loved [Verse] Fell in love fast, every time felt new, Promised the stars, didn't have a clue. All in, every time, thought it was the key, Left alone, wondering what's wrong with me. Learned too late, devotion scares them away, Just me at the end of each day. [chorus] i gotta be perfect or else i die that is my mantra since I was child never good enough never really feel loved [verse] I played it smart, rose up the ranks, Built walls so high, no room for thanks. I took a vow, she became my wife, Still, I kept her out of my inner life. Outwardly strong, inwardly a maze, Living behind success, lost in its haze. [Bridge] [Verse] Ten years in, she makes it clear, "Just be yourself," resonates near. No quick fix, pretense fades slow, Her words a gentle, guiding glow. Not done yet, but I start to see, With her belief, I'm learning to be free. [chorus] no need be perfect before I die can leave my mantra I had since I was child finally good enough finally feel loved
