Jim Allchin - Perfect Game Lyrics

Sun set fast when you walked away
Darkness fell and nighttime stole the day away
Took my heart and left me empty standing
How can I fly with just one wing?

I'm alone again
I begin the game of pretend
Hide my heart, hide my eyes
The old familiar disguise

It's the perfect game
Just lie and proclaim
I'm doin great, showin no pain
It's the perfect game

It's the perfect game
Just lie and proclaim
I'm doin great, showin no pain
It's the perfect game

My friends ask me, are you doin' ok
Scars might heal, but they never go away
I tell them that I'm doin' just fine
But the lies 'bout choke me every time

Play the part and pretend
My weary heart's on the mend
I'm awful good at rehearsing lines
But you know I'm doing fine

It's the perfect game
Just lie and proclaim
I'm doin great, showin no pain
It's the perfect game

Yeah it's the perfect game
To just stand there and lie
Everything's great, feelin' no pain
It's the perfect game
