Perfection Lyrics - Sheila Nicholls

She looked for perfection in an imperfect world 

'Cause she needed perfection where his hatred was curled 

And she tried to remember how heaven had felt 

'Cause she new that she had been there before these cards were dealt 

And he's just a skeleton, no doubt in his eyes 

And she is an angel no one denies 

So she turned and she left him to turn night into day 

But he grabbed hold of anything just to make her stay 

She searched for the lesson that would teach her the skills 

To fill her hole with herself not Valium pills 

But it's hard to find sisters not poisoned with doubt 

It's hard to find sisters who still know what faith's all about 

And he's just a skeleton, no doubt in his eyes 

And she is an angel no one denies 

So she turned and she left him to turn night into day 

But he grabbed hold of anything just to make her stay 

Just to make her stay 

[Unverified] 

She came to the table to play a new game 

But she is still holding the same cards 

But she won't feel your shame 

'Cause there is nothing outside her to gain or receive 

There's nothing to fuel her along till herself she believes in 

He, she 

So she had to turn and leave him, anything
