she doesn't understand,
why she has to be perfect,
she wanted to be free,
she is never good enough,
never does anything right,
nobody sees her as a person,
she tries to be perfect,
she tries to make the great grades,
she tries to be slender,
she tries to be the sweetest,
but nothing ever works,
she still gets the put downs,
they wont let her grow up,
she still isn't good enough,
nothing pleases them,
they wont accept what she does,
its never good or great,
she cant make them proud of her,
that's all she wants to do,
its never good enough.
