The Perfect Crime Lyrics
In the mind’s eye, we commit the perfect crime
We are drawing nearer, we're only one step away
When we visualize the destruction from inside
We tear ourselves apart and we are to blame
Too far and never near the ending will appear
To pose another question of what we hold dear
Our sanity reveals what is false and what is real
The grays that seem to haunt this unforgiving hell
We think we've fooled all of mankind
We have created the perfect crime
The answers intertwined, we often cross the line
We make our own reality and think life is fine
Life through a clouded lens, our judgment cloaked in sin
We fall from the highest point just to get up again
We think we've fooled all of mankind
We have created the perfect crime
The perfect crime
We are drawing nearer, we're only one step away
When we visualize the destruction from inside
We tear ourselves apart and we are to blame
To pose another question of what we hold dear
Our sanity reveals what is false and what is real
The grays that seem to haunt this unforgiving hell
We think we've fooled all of mankind
We have created the perfect crime
We make our own reality and think life is fine
Life through a clouded lens, our judgment cloaked in sin
We fall from the highest point just to get up again
We have created the perfect crime
The perfect crime

The song explores the idea of self-deception and the consequences of our actions. It suggests that in our minds we often commit acts that we believe are justified or necessary. However, the act of fooling ourselves and others is ultimately destructive and leads to our own downfall. In our pursuit of personal gain or satisfaction, we will get blinded by our own desires and fail to consider the consequences of our actions as we've convinced ourselves that what we are doing is right or necessary, but in reality, we are only harming ourselves and causing further chaos.
