one perfect lie

Gary Numan

One. One perfect lie.
Was it told too soon?
And one, one perfect life
Turned to stone.
Cold mercy.

I kneel down by your grave
I kneel down torn and guilty

Did I let you down,
Say goodbye too soon?
And did you understand
My mistake?
Forgive me.

I kneel down by your side
I kneel down scared and helpless

One perfect lie
Wrapped in kindness and tears
I wish I believed in your Heaven
One perfect life
Led by blind faith and trust
If God has a heart He will find you

I'm torn and guilty
