Perfect, Sometimes

I′ll catch every whisper surrounding your head, your head
'Cause you′ve got the look of a poor girl wondering
Where she'll sleep tonight
And am I a fool to let you in?

You said it'd all work out and everything
Would be the same someday soon
I followed willingly, now you′re snapping at
Your heels as I walk towards a grave mistake
Well am I a fool to let you

Sometimes we′re blind and stupid
Sometimes we need the thunder for ourselves
Yeah we all get carried away

Well Sally never had a night like this
Now she's dangling one foot off a cliff
Saying "Bet I can beat you down"
Now she′s crouched behind her bedroom door
Making phone calls all her friends ignore
Wondering why the world let her down
Well am I a fool to let you

Sometimes we're blind and stupid
Sometimes we need the thunder for ourselves
Yeah we were young and anxious
We all get carried away

′Cause perfect is just not who we are
Yeah perfect is just not who we are
Sometimes we're blind and stupid

Sometimes we need the thunder for ourselves
Yeah we all get carried away

Oh, carried away
We all get carried away sometimes
