Hey dad look at me

Think back and talk to me

Did I grow up according to the plan?

And do you think I'm wasting my time doing things I wanna do?

But it hurts when you disapprove all along

And now I try hard to make it

I just wanna make you proud

I'm never gonna be good enough for you

I can't pretend that

I'm alright

And you can't change me

'Cause we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I'm sorry

I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late

And we can't go back

I'm sorry

I can't be perfect

Come on everybody

Make some noise

I try not to think

About the pain I feel inside

Did you know you used to be my hero?

All the days you spent with me

Now seem so far away

And it feels like you don't care anymore

And now I try hard to make it

I just wanna make you proud

I'm never gonna be good enough for you

I can't stand another fight

And nothing's alright

'Cause we lost it all

Sing it

Nothing lasts forever

I'm sorry

I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late

And we can't go back

I'm sorry

I can't be perfect

Nothing's gonna change the things that you said

Nothing's gonna make things right again{right agaaaaain}

Please don't turn your back

I can't believe it's hard

Just to talk to you

But you don't understaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand

Thank you very much

Thank you

Everybody screeeam

'Cause we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I'm sorry

I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late

And we can't go back

I'm sorry

I can't be perfeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeect

'Cause we lost it all

Nothing lasts forever

I'm sorry

I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late

And we can't go back

I'm sorry

I can't be peeeerfeeect...

Thank you very much

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you very much

Thanks a Hard Rock Live

Thanks to you guys

We'll be back

We'll be back

We will be back to see you
