Hey dad, look at me
think back and talk to me
did I grow up according to plan?
and do u think I'm 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 wanna make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
Can't pretend that I'm alright
and you can't change me!

Chorus:
Cause we lost it all
nothing last 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

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 seems so far away
and it seems that you don't care anymore

now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
Can't stand another fight
and nothings 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 cant go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect

Nothings gonna change the things that you said
Nothings gonna make this right again
Please dont turn your back
I can't believe its hard just to talk to you
But you dont understand!

Chorus:
Cause we've lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late
and we cant go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect (x2)

Now it's just too late and we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
