Hey dad look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did I grow up according to the plan?
And 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 wanna 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

´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

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

And now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I´m never gonna be good enough for you
I can´t stand another fight
And nothing´s alright

´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
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

´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
