lyrics

I think it's about time that someone says something about this mess
And I hope that you won't mind that I'm stressing about it in my home
Is it still the place that I can call my own because it's changing faces
Every time I loan feelings, well they end up in the press

You've cracked the center and things are falling apart from the inside
You've cracked the center and things are falling apart

Things might look great from the surface
but eventually the problems will seep out
And I might use bigger words because they make your head hurt
Should I keep it in layman’s terms of how you hurt

You've cracked the center and things are falling apart from the inside
You've cracked the center and things are falling apart

Let's get to the realness of what's intact
Because not much braces to your simple tact
This is, this is, the beginning of the terrible end
How can we keep faith in every line
How can we see when all the signs

Are wrong and pointing us in a different direction than what we've planned
Life might be ruined because of your so called perfect design
But enough feeling about the past let's look to the present
And try to understand how fast we went in the wrong directions
You won't find a definition of perfection
You find it in your history books
You find it you find it you find it

You won’t find it
