Perfect Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, Dad, look at me,
Think back and talk to me,
Did I grow up according to plan?
And do you think I'm wasting my time,
Doing things I wanna do?
But it hurts when you disapprove
All along.

[Pre-Chorus]
And now I try hard to make it,
I just want to make you proud.
I'm never gonna be good enough for you.
I can't pretend that I'm alright,
And you can't change me!

[Chorus]
'Cause we lost it all, nothing lasts forever,
I'm sorry, I can't be
Perfect.
Now it's just too late, and we can't go back,
I'm sorry, I can't be
Perfect.

[Verse 2]
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 don't care
Anymore.

[Pre-Chorus]
And now I try hard to make it,
I just want to make you proud.
I'm never gonna be good enough for you.
I can't stand another fight.
And nothing' alright!

[Chorus]
'Cause we lost it all, nothing lasts forever,
I'm sorry, I can't be
Perfect.
Now it's just too late, and we can't go back,
I'm sorry, I can't be
Perfect.

Nothing's gonna change the
Things that you said.
And nothing's gonna make this
Right again!
Please don't turn your back, I
Can't believe it's hard just to talk to you,
But you don't understand!

[Chorus]
'Cause we lost it all, nothing lasts forever,
I'm sorry, I can't be
Perfect.
Now it's just too late, and we can't go back,
I'm sorry, I can't be
Perfect.
'Cause we lost it all, nothing lasts forever,
I'm sorry, I can't be
Perfect.
Now it's just too late, and we can't go back,
I'm sorry, I can't be
Perfect.
