So perfect

I am supposed to be so perfect
the apple in my parents eye
i can't be like a normal teenager and try
I have to push myself to be so god damn perfect
if i fail in a subject they make out my life is wrecked.

I go to my room and bury my head
lose myself in the music
i just lay in my bed
i turn up my music to block their voices from my mind
i only give them me and i am sorry thats all they are going to find

i can't be their little angel anymore
i am growing up and rebelling against their word
they have tried to make me and mold me but what for?
can't they love me for me anymore?

I try my best to keep them satisfied
my hope and faith have died
they say i could of passed if i tried
but they don't understand
so i just walk upstairs again and bury my head in the sand
hoping to wake up and praying my parents will notice i cant be perfect.
