For Daddy
I know it’s too late
That by now, it’s all up to fate
But I should’ve said this before I left
All this words that I’ve kept
I’m not perfect, and I won’t ever be
I’m sorry if I never was what you expected of me
I just want to make you proud
So please don’t shout too loud
I know we’ve been through a lot
All those times we’ve left to rot
Maybe we were wrong
Maybe we’ve fought for too long
You’ll always be my hero, though
It’s just something I want you to know
Sorry for being too emotional
When we were both to irrational
It hurts when you disapprove all along
But this has been going on way too long
I guess I should finally speak out
I hope this won’t make you shout
Will I ever be good enough for you?
Have I done all the things you wanted me to do?
Right now, I guess we’re both back on track
But to those times, we can never go back
I guess nothing’s going to make this right
I just wanted to say this without another fight
I hope someday we’ll work this out
And that someday, you won’t ever have to shout
Inspired by Simple Plan's song, Perfect. Inspired by my own experiences.
