Lyrics Perceptions - The Beautiful Monument

Perceptions

Excuse me for the silence, I swear I’m not a mess
Disguised, I am misguided by the judgement you have spread
I may seem like a bitch, but you probably don’t know me
I’m quiet, I have boundaries that you probably haven’t met
I’m only a person who’s lost in their head
Misfortune is something that’s earned and not led
I’m rough 'round the edges, and so it was said
To be honest I wish you were dead
Perhaps I’m not the bad guy, I swear it’s not my fault
Did you ever think that maybe your perception’s on default
Welcome to the new age, what a waste of time
Your insecurities are treasures you cannot define
I’m only a person who’s lost in their head
Misfortune is something that’s earned and not led
I’m rough 'round the edges, and so it was said
To be honest I wish you were dead
(I wish you were dead)
I wish high upon a star
Wishing you were what you are
Sickly figures in my head
Spread the joys which I have fled
I’m only a person who’s lost in their head
Misfortune is something that’s earned and not led
I’m rough 'round the edges, and so it was said
To be honest…
I’m only a person who’s lost in their head
Misfortune is something that’s earned and not led
I’m rough 'round the edges, and so it was said
To be honest…
I’m only a person who’s lost in their head
Misfortune is something that’s earned and not led
I’m rough 'round the edges, and so it was said
To be honest I’m glad you’re not dead
