Song lyrics
i know we're just like old friends
We just can't pretend
That lovers make amends
We are reasons so unreal
We can't help but feel that something has been lost

But please you know you're just like me
Next time I promise we'll be
Perfect
Perfect
Perfect strangers down the line
Lovers out of time
Memories unwind

So far I still know who you are
But now I wonder who I was...

Angel, you know it's not the end
We'll always be good friends
The letters have been sent on

So please, you always were so free
You'll see, I promise we'll be
Perfect
Perfect strangers when we meet
Strangers on the street
Lovers while we sleep

Perfect
You know this has to be
We always we're so free
We promised that we'd be
Perfect
Perfect
Perfect

This song is really lovely. I often have the lyrics in my msn name. Its a bit sad when you listen to it over and over, and start to figure out that there is another side to it as well.

"...We'll be perfect..."
Wicked lyrics. Melancholic, sonorous, gorgeous.

lol, it is a rather beautiful song, but yeah, it goes a little deeper than something as obviously callous as Ava Adore..really lovely song, one of the best off a mediocre album

I love this song so much... It's such a terrible "I want to fuck you but not have a real relationship with you" song. It's cruel like Ava Adora and beautiful in a sadistic Nine Inch Nails way... I love it...wait didn't I already say that?
