Try (2003)

Oh I try and I try and I try and I try…

I’m never gonna be good enough for you am I?
I just can’t pass your test
I’m never gonna be that perfect kid,
But you know…

There’s no such thing as perfect (Nobody can be perfect)
You just don’t understand
I try too hard, yet I still fail in your eyes
What do I have to do to be good enough?
What do I have to do to pass your test?

Oh I try and I try and I try…

So many questions asked, but no one’s answering
I’ve got potential,
But you just pick out all the reasons, all the things that aren’t good (Why?)
You tell me what’s wrong with me, when I already know,
Tell me something new.
Enlighten me.

*Chorus*

Oh I try and I try and I try and I try…
And I still fail (according to you)
