The Perfect Embodiment Songtext
von The Agonist

The mind cannot dominate
When all my logic is erased
If you repeat the same mistakes
The soul will never alleviate

Running against time to make ends meet
Arguments invalid
It′s highly dysfunctional, you see
In full retrospect

I won't accept the incompetence
Rotting in the weaker side of me
For all my wounds to be healed
I concede to the greater part of me

The perfect embodiment
My inner victim
Let all the flaws regress
With mind in balance


As far as stories go we′re a wicked fairytale
The bumps and twists too rough to settle for a lesser deal
Threw the weight on granted terms to hide my worst downfall
A lesson well earned, the unexpected outcome

I won't accept the incompetence
Rotting in the weaker side of me
For all my wounds to be healed
I concede to the greater part of me

True opposites collide
In this fragment of an entity
I am one, forever incomplete
Imprisoned in my own defeat

My reflection, mortal challenge sinks
In the depths of regret
Failure to consent, no will to fight
In full retrospect

Running against time to make ends meet
Arguments invalid
It's highly dysfunctional, you see
In full retrospect
