all those years of your pressure
of me wanting to break free
i wanted to slip between the cracks
i wanted to embrace failure
to get you away from me
i could never do it
i couldnt handle your disapproval
i never could i never will
you wanted me to be perfect
no matter what it took
all i could be was imperfect
i could never be good enough
pretty enough
smart enough
i wasnt what you wanted me to be
you were so blinded that you couldnt see
what you were doing to me
what youve been putting me through
i know that i cant please you
that you want to give me what you never had
but i just want you to see
that
i cant be perfect.
i cant be you.
