I don't want to be broken 
I want to be laughing on a Saturday night 
Surrounded by strangers who don't have a clue 
That I'm struggling to find the light 


I don't want to be open 
I want to be a photograph, underexposed 
Impossible to figure out who I am 
Right now I wonder if the world will ever know 
Cause since you've been gone 
I'm a puzzle without pieces 
I'm a bird that cannot fly 


I don't know why love has to be so flawed 
Will I ever get exactly what I want 
I don't care why, the only way to win is to risk it all 
Not be afraid to fall 
Why do we have to be so flawed? 


I've got treasures in my head 
And dreams like diamonds all wrapped in gold 
And will anybody ever know... 


I don't know why love has to be so flawed 
Will I ever get exactly what I want 
I don't care why, the only way to win is to risk it all 
Not be afraid to fall 
Why do we have to be so flawed? 


Is it imperfection that's trying to bring me down 
I can't be afraid 
Only my dreams can save me now 


I don't know why love has to be so flawed 


I don't know why love has to be so flawed 
Will I ever get exactly what I want 
I don't care why, the only way to win is to risk it all 
Not be afraid to fall 
Why do we have to be so flawed? 


Why do we have to be so flawed?
