Wanting To Be Perfect

There is no doubt about it I am bad I can't do anything right And I always think things wrong How do I ever expect to be free? God will always mess with me And correct me Do I want this? I don't know I am kind of tired of this But then I don't want Him NOT to do it So what am I to do? God, is this what life is? I don't know When am I ever going to be "not fixing"? When are You going to be done with me? I try and try and it seems it's no help I will always say the wrong thing Do the wrong thing I will never be perfect Ahh it's a lost cause Why do I ever think I can be perfect? Not a chance Only God is ever perfect I should know that But that doesn't stop me from trying, right? Or wanting it Ahh God what do you put in me?
