Amber Run - Perfect Lyrics






I want to be perfect just like you
Pull my strings, show me what to do
I want to be high and never come down
I want to know why and I want to know how

I want to fall in love with a perfect stranger
And out of touch with the God that made her
I want her to pick me up and hang me out to dry
Show me glimpses of the other side

Karma karma, you reap what you sow
Karma karma, please pay what I'm owed

I've got to be perfect
I've got to be perfect

Pick my pocket when my back is turned
Then lecture me on what I've learnt
I want to be perfect just like you
Pull my strings, show me what to do

Karma karma, you reap what you sow
Karma karma, please pay what I'm owed

I've got to be perfect
Perfect

You can hold me down
You can let me go
You can spurn my art
You can break my bones
And call it karma karma
I'm falling further further

Oh I want to be perfect just like you
Pull my strings, show me what to do
But karma karma
Please pay what I'm owed

I've got to be perfect
Perfect

    I want her to pick me up and hang me out to dry
    Showing me glimpses of the other side

  29. n.... a....

    💖💖

  30. K.... M....

    Jesus yes

  31. O.... M....

    Love you!!!

  32. J.... P....

    Love it 😍

  33. M.... M....

    Well this band is evolving into exactly what I like!
    Indie/Alternative all day <3

  34. K.... V....

    We are so close form the new album I want it in my house now :')💝

  35. P.... O....

    Apenas dizer que essa música é maravilhosa e Amber Run está se superando a cada canção!!! Amando demais!! I'm from Brazil and this Song is so cool!!!

  36. E.... Z....

    They sound more like a typical alt rock band in this song than they did with their other songs.

  37. A.... ....

    This is amazing!

  38. M.... M....

    I cant find the lyrics for the song.

  39. M.... F....

    Oh my gawd, I love this! 👆👏 Lots of good vibes from Namibia, Southern Africa!

  40. V.... M....

    I love it!!

  41. F.... ....

    Can't wait for the new album💕❤

  42. N.... N....

    God I love it

  43. X.... ....

    Can the new album just be out already, please.. It's great to see how they are evolving.

  44. S.... d....

    music so good to my soul

  45. D.... E....

    Brilliant

  46. W.... ....

    i knew i loved this song after the first 2 seconds.

  47. E.... D....

    Still in love with all of their music and this is just an example why.

  48. J.... O....

    All these people saying that they don't like there new music and that's it's less ambient and more upbeat. It's not majorly different and this is not the only group we see this happen to. All artists develop and change over time, you've almost got to expect it really. It's still very relevant to the indie genre! Also seeing you guys in a couple weeks. Imma make sure I get to the front of the crowd and say hi!

    J.... O....

    It is not metal so it isn't good.

  49. R.... ....

    omfg this is so freaking perfect! literally! i love it

  50. M.... S....

    Can somebody give me lyrics? Please :D

  51. P.... ....

    Kinda has the feel of a James Bond opening song about it

  52. D.... Y....

    I love when a band evolves into what they want to do

  53. T.... D....

    i am crying this is so good

  54. A.... ....

    ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

  55. P.... P....

    Seriously, it's a perfect song

  56. E.... B....

  57. V.... ....

    😍😍

  58. E.... V....

    YES. JUST YES.

  59. P.... S....

    A upbeat song by Amber Run and honestly I love it.

    P.... S....

    007 Bond I like alot of their stuff

  60. s.... b....

    I thought this song got out like, two days ago, but I couldn't find the video (deleted for some reason) . but late is better than never

  61. E.... C....

    Love this 💕💕 can't wait to go see them in a couple weeks x

  62. K.... ....

    Un estilo renovado, me gusta

  63. E.... X....

    the melody on the verses sounds very very similar to "I found" (just at 2-3x faster tempo). Not a huge fan of this song, but maybe it'll sound better in the context of their new album.

    E.... X....

    your right

    E.... X....

    Emily Xzy OMG ur right

  64. E.... ....

    ♡ Love it. Love it. Love it ♡
