Better Than Perfect

(to the tune of “Your Reality” from Doki Doki Literature Club)

[Verse 1]

Here I stare at a screen that is white and clean, and it’s mocking me

How can I turn the thoughts running through my head to reality

[Chorus]

The keyboard sits here, indifferent and silent

Just move your hand, write the way into your heart

Fit all your thoughts into place, build them up tall

Rough and unmortared, but it’s still standing strong

Rough and unmortared, but it’s still standing strong

[Verse 2]

I admit, that this wall that I’ve cobbled together’s a bit ugly

Stones hacked out of the bed of the quarry in my mind unthinkingly

[Chorus]

“It’s not done,” I say in reassurance

There’s lots to do before it will be complete

There’s holes and cracks where the wind gusts right through it

But perfect walls won’t block any wind at all

Since they never leave your head

Demolish perfect with real

Build beautiful
