Hey dad look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did I grow up according to plan?
Do you 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 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

�cuz 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

I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
All the days you spend with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don�t care anymore

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�s alright

Nothing�s gonna change the things that you said
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
