I'm Never Good Enough

Why does it always come down to this?
I feud between you and I?
I'm really trying to please you
But on the inside I continue to die

Don't you care about what I think?
What about what I feel?
I can't live your dreams for you
They are dreams, I am real!

Many nights I lay crying
Because it's never enough
I'm always working my hardest
But sometimes it's just too rough

Why can't you love me this way?
Do my needs mean nothing to you?
I wish I was a better daughter
But that wish will never come true

Tears are pouring from my eyes
Because I always seem to fail
No matter how hard I try
To you, I'll never prevail

I can't do anything well or right
I can't even make a good rhyme
But my dad will never be proud of me
Until his dreams become mine...
