My Direction\"
Perfection is my direction
Even if thats all I had
It\'s not like I need no correction,
I just know that life\'s not so bad
Picture this, everyday,
Kids that just can\'t find a way,
Stuck in disarray,
Can\'t find hope for better days
It\'s a degeneration
Of childhood frustration
In The Last 30 Years teenage suicide has increased 300% in North America
And is the 2nd major cause of death in Canada.
Perfection is my direction
Even if thats all I had
It\'s not like I need no correction,
I just know that life\'s not so bad
When will all my problems disappear?
Am I just going crazy from the fear?
Oh my oh my I\'m going far past the brink
This pressure\'s like a weight,
And I still can\'t think straight.
Perfection is my direction
Even if thats all I had
It\'s not like I need no correction,
I just know that life\'s not so bad
I met my destination
What\'s left to complain about?
All these aggravations
Building till the seams fall out
I\'m running my mouth dry
With every time I lie
(don\'t tell me without a doubt this dumb found luck has all run out [Repeat])
Perfection is my direction
Even if thats all I had
It\'s not like I need no correction,
I just know that life\'s not so bad
