Perfect

You always say what should I do
But you say – “I am not perfect too”

You always try to criticize me
You usually say “Just look at me”

You remind me what you always do
You say to me – “Be as good as I’m to you”

I should take care of you every time
When I do something wrong you’re mad

When you do bring mess into my life
You say “Sorry”. And I shouldn’t mind

What I want to express does not count
You show that You are the perfect one

I’m fed up with what you Always say
The truth is - You just don’t care
