Try so hard every day

Gotta be better than the rest

No matter what they say

Gotta be perfect

.

I’m sorry

I didn’t mean to make mistakes

Didn’t want to fail

I’ll do what ever it takes

To make myself better

.

I’m sorry,

I didn’t mean to start crying

Didn’t want to disappoint you

But can’t you see I’m trying

Trying to be perfect

.

Give up on me

I’ll only let you down

You’ll see

Never enough

.

Try so hard every day

To do the right things

Is being perfect the only way

I can make you love me

.

I’m sorry

I didn’t mean to be so weak

Didn’t want to fall apart

But every time you speak

You break me down

.

I’m sorry

I didn’t mean to yell so loud

Didn’t want to be afraid

I only wanted to make you proud

Proud that I’m your child

.

Give up on me

I’ll only let you down

You’ll see

Never enough

.

Don’t look for something

that isn’t there

this can’t be the only way

To make you care

.

How can you expect

Me to be flawless

No one is perfect

Not even you

.

I’m giving up on me

I’ll only let you down

You’ll see

Never enough
