Not Your Perfect Girl...

The words I have held so long in my heart Have broken free at last But now I want to take them back, I want to turn back the time, Because these words have hurt you so bad I shouldn’t have shouted at you I shouldn’t have said those words I shouldn’t have been so tense But even a stone can break under pressure And maybe my heart broke too I wanted you to understand This hurt I am carrying in my heart Because after all, we are family But I guess you expected me to be strong To take it cool when so many things have changed My life isn’t picture perfect My life isn’t a well-written script That people would understand I guess I shouldn’t have pushed it too far And hoped you’d understand When the rest of the world did not I am sorry that I am not strong enough To take this battle as a part of life I am sorry that I can’t forget this pain Hurting so bad in my heart I am sorry for all these mistakes I am sorry I am not your perfect girl
