More Perfect
~ Song & Lyrics by Brian Morey
This piece is a quiet invitation into stillness.
More Perfect is an invitation to rethink what perfection really means.
Set in the quiet grind of everyday life, the song offers a simple promise: not to escape hardship, but to meet it with commitment and care. It suggests that love isn’t proven through grand achievements or flawless plans, but through choosing one another, again and again, when things are ordinary, uncertain, or hard.
In a world that rarely applauds persistence, the song invites the listener to consider whether showing up, imperfectly but faithfully, might be enough.
More Perfect
Word and Lyrics by Brian Morey
VERSE 1
The clock says go, you punch your card.
Work to the bone and never seem to get too far.
“They work you hard,” you hear her say.
And though the hurt remains you tell ‘er, “I’m ok.”
She leans on the door, they count sheep.
And soon to come her precious duo will be three.
This stillness sounds like a dream,
and she’ll love ‘em sure whatever theirs may be.
CHORUS
You’ll work hard, you’ll be free.
Travel far, sea to sea.
You’ll do all the perfect plans you dream to do.
And I’ll be more perfect for you.
I’ll be more perfect for you.
VERSE 2
No applause, there’s no fame.
There’s no smiling face who’s only glad you came.
Just a door, that’s sometimes closed.
And when it opens, will it help? No one knows.
There’s no perfect meadow waiting for your feet.
No perfect words to ease your broken dreams.
Just a chance, you get to try,
And pressing on is always worth the fight.
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Without hurt, without fear
When the rain, is coming near.
You need rest, you need love
Sweet release, here it comes.
Let it heal, ease the pain
Breathe it out, rise again.
Forward still, side by side
All as one, we arrive.
Holding ground, forward still
Rising now, I know who will.
Still in love, through our pain
Hand in hand, we remain.
We remain. (X4)
OUTRO
I’ve got my flaws, I’m incomplete.
I’m feeling weathered, maybe tired, maybe creased.
But in my heart I know the fight will see you through.
So I’ll be more perfect for you.
I’ll be more perfect for you.
