Dear mom, please look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did I grow up according to plan?
Do you think I'm wasting my time?
Or do you think my life's just fine?
But it hurts when you disapprove all along
Because I'm trying hard to make it
I always wanted to make you proud
But you just want to break it
I'm never going to be good enough for you
Can't pretend that I'm alright
And you can't change me
All we ever do is fight
We lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late
You and me, we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfectI try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
Oh no
All the days you spent with me
Now they seem so far away
And it's feels like you don't care anymore
Because now I'm trying hard to make it
I always wanted to make you proud
But you just want to break it
I'm never going to be good enough for you
Can't stand another fight
And nothing's alright
We lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late
You and me, we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfectNothings going to change the things that you said
And nothings going to make this right ever again
So just turn back away from me
I can't believe it's this hard
Just to talk to you
To get you to talk to me
And you don't understandWe lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
It's just too late
You and me, we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Because we lost it all
And nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late
You and me, we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfectI'm sorry I've never been perfect
I'm sorry I'll never be perfect
You're the one
Who gave me this mold
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
