When my time comes

All of us have a certain streak of perfectionism in us and while it's not wrong to desire perfection, some of us get overly into it. It is human nature that we all want to do better and ask for something better. Some people desire better pay, better jobs, better lovers, and so on; and they would strive towards to achieve them. There's nothing wrong with that.

Yet in life we know we don't always get what we think we want. And it's okay. All our existences are less than perfect and perhaps deliberately made so, as that's what makes us all different. It is human to err and we all make mistakes. I can make do with something less than perfect as I'm not perfect myself.

Linkin Park - Leave Out All The Rest

I dreamed I was missing, you were so scared
But no one would listen, cause no one else cared
After my dreaming, I woke with this fear
What am I leaving, when I'm done here
So if you're asking me then I want you to know

*When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory,
leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Don't be afraid, I've taken my beating, I've shared what I made
I'm strong on the surface, not all the way through
I've never been perfect, but neither have you
So if you're asking me I want you to know

*Chorus

Forgetting all the hurt inside, you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

*Chorus
