I try and try again

But always seem to fail

Never good enough

Sometimes I want to wail

I always try my best

Do what think is right

But it in the end its not

Though I try with all my might

All the good I do

All gets washed away

From on bad thing

All the good wasn't enough anyway

I try to be good

But sometimes it tough

When in return

I'm just never enough

I want to be bad

I want to have fun

Don't I deserve it

Just to have some

I want to rest

And not have to worry

That I won't be good enough

And everything won't be blurry

I won't ever be your perfect child

That does everything right

Or is always the best

But I don't want you to mind

I want to be the one

That you look at and say

I'm proud of her

Each and every way

She may not be the best

Or at all even close to perfect

But that ok

Because she gives her best at it

Though when I do look at you

I see my reflection

And all the disappointment

A not met expectation

Though I don't seem to be enough

I'll never stop and always try

Try to make you proud

Till the day I die.
