Lyrics Rise Against

Rise Against

Far from Perfect

Keeping up appearances

Don't break now or buckle from the weight

Pretend to laugh but don't laugh too loud

Do you feel the pressure building

The anger spilling out now

Meanwhile the cracks have formed on

The masks we've worn up 'til now

We are far from perfect but perfect as we are

We are bruised, we are broken

But we are goddamn works of art

Works of art

The pieces of our hearts all gravitated

Together but before we could be part of

This mosaic we had to break apart

Like glass we're falling faster than stars

Meanwhile the cracks have formed on

The masks we've worn up 'til now

Take a look

We are far from perfect but perfect as we are

We are bruised, we are broken

We are goddamn works of art

In every color we shine

A tapestry of scars with every thread

We're growing stronger and moving on

We're finding right ways despite the wrong ones

We're clearing paths blocked by storms

We're finding the beauty in what you've ignored

We are far from perfect but perfect as we are

We are far from perfect but perfect as we are

We are bruised, we are broken

But we are goddamn works of art

Yeah we are, perfect as we are, perfect as we are
