A Perfect Mess
Mike Posner

So what's a young man to do

Had a million in the bank when I turned 22, alright

Am I the same me

Doing impressions of myself so people say it hasn't changed me

If only that were true now

But ain't a artist in the game that can do what I do, ow

I ain't your little secret no more

But listen real close, and I give you one more

See all of these American dreams that I find myself living out

Mixed with all of these man-made woman that I find myself digging out

They tell me all day long to get a bodyguard to help myself get around


But I ain't ever been afraid of other people getting inside

I'm more afraid of what I got on the inside, getting out


What was left, A perfect mess

Did we forget, A perfect mess

What was left, A perfect mess

Did we forget


Been a while since 09

Remember when I told you it was a matter of time


Did you believed me

Did it take this long

I told Sean if I ever got on, that I'd never ever buy a chain with ice

And I didn't

Before this all changed my life, from dreams in the dorm room

To doing big things in the boardroom


See all of these non-American bottles that I find myself sipping out

Mixed with all of the things I'm a have to relearn and one day live without

Mixed with all of the things inside my head that I can't figure out


But I ain't ever been afraid of other people seeing inside

I'm more afraid of what I got on the inside, getting out


What was left, A perfect mess

Did we forget, A perfect mess

What was left, A perfect mess

Did we forget
