Hey dad look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did I grow up according to plan?
And do you think Im wasting my time doing things I wanna do?
But it hurts when you disapprove all along

And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
Im never gonna be good enough for you
I cant pretend that
Im alright
And you cant change me

Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
Im sorry
I cant be perfect
Now its just too late and
We cant go back
Im sorry
I cant be perfect

I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
All the days you spent with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you dont care anymore

And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
Im never gonna be good enough for you
I cant stand another fight
And nothings alright

Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
Im sorry
I cant be perfect
Now its just too late and
We cant go back
Im sorry
I cant be perfect

Nothings gonna change the things that you said
Nothings gonna make this right again
Please dont turn your back
I cant believe its hard
Just to talk to you
But you dont understand

Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
Im sorry
I cant be perfect
Now its just too late and
We cant go back
Im sorry
I cant be perfect

Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
Im sorry
I cant be perfect
Now its just too late and
We cant go back
Im sorry
I cant be perfect.
