Evanescence - Imperfection lyrics

The more you try to fight it The more you try to hide it The more infected, rejected, you feel alone inside it You know you can't deny it The world's a little more f**ed up everyday I'm gonna save you from it Together we'll outrun it Just don't give into the fear So many things I would've told you If I knew that I was never gonna see you again [Pre-Chorus 1:] I wanna lift you up into the light that you deserve I wanna take your pain into myself so you won't hurt [Chorus:] Don't you dare surrender Don't leave me here without you Cause I would never Replace your perfect imperfection [Verse 2:] The way you look us over Your counterfeit composure Pushing again and again and sinking lower and lower The world is on its shoulders Do you really know the weight of the words you say? You want a little of it You just can't let go of it You've got an ego to feed Too late to rise above it Don't look now but the little girl's got a grenade [Pre-Chorus 2:] I'm gonna lift you up into the light you deserve I'm gonna take you down to the real world so you can watch it burn [Chorus:] Don't you dare surrender Don't leave me here without you Cause I would never Replace your perfect imperfection [Bridge:] We stand undefined Can't be drawn with a straight line This will not be our ending We are alive, we are alive [Chorus:] Don't you dare surrender Don't leave me here without you Cause I would never Replace your perfect imperfection [Outro:] Don't you dare surrender I'm still right beside you And I would never Replace your perfect imperfection
