Never Enough

It's been 18 years of the same thing
I try and try, but anything I do
Is never good enough for you
Why is it when I beg for affection
You turn around and pay no attention?
I don't know what I did wrong
Sorry I'm not what you were expecting
Wish I could change who I am
So I can make you proud
But I can't, all I can do is
Apologize for not being
What you wanted me to be
I'm sorry it didn't turn out
The way you planned
I was just a kid
That wanted a hug or kiss
Only wanted to feel appreciated
And live a single day without pain
Sad to say it was my own dad
That made me see
How dark the world can be...
