Reviews for Perfect Lyrics

the first time i heard these song it was on the raidio and i started crying.My dad doesn't live with me i dont really know were he lives.He only comes to the house to eat or to take cloths and take a shower were ever he lives.Im berrly 13 and i need my dad with me.My mom has 4 kids in total and only two girls are from my dad.She works for all of us with no help just her.I want to grow up and help my mom already.But even though im happy to be with my mom,it makes me sad to not have my dad by my side.When he does go to the house we're always fighting we don't really get along.He tells me that im not good for anything.he even told me once that i wasn't his doughter at all.I love my dad and i hate it when he tells me this things.it makes me very sad to see him in the streets like if he didn't have a family or a house to live at.this song makes me very sad.but i like it because it reminds me of my daddy.

Well I have to say that this song gets me every time. Growing up my dad was never around (he was always working). I understand his reasons for working all the time, but what he got out of it were 2 unhappy sons. The first time I heard this song i broke down and cried, because it describes me and my dad so much. I never had a dad that would go outside and play catch with me or just to sit around and talk. To make matters worse he would always compare me and my little brother, and make us "fight" for his approval. So in turn my brother and I are not very close and never have been (i am trying to change that). But anyways, I would do everything I could to get my dads approval. I played high school football and baseball and he never showed up to any of my games until my senior year. When he did show up he would NEVER say anything positive, but always picked out my faults in everything I did, it was never enough to please him. The ONLY time he said that he was proud of me and that he loved me was the day I left for college. It has never left his mouth again. Well this time last year my dad and I got into an argument in which we didn't talk for 6 months. Then finally I came around and tried to patch things up with him, and I did but he blamed all of what happened on me, its his mentality that nothing is his fault. I try to be his perfect son, the one he can say he's proud of, but its never enough. AND IT KILLS ME!! Its almost like I don't have a dad. Just a guy that lives in my house, and tells me that i'm never going to amount to anything and I'm a failure at life. Sadly im holding back the tears as i type this, because I just want a dad that tells me he loves and is actually proud of me. One last thing, that he doesn't know or will ever know, he wrote me a letter for my senior retreat just a letter for me to read, but he tries to be emotional, but it was a letter that I'll never forget. The thing he doesn't know is that I keep that letter with me at all times, I keep it in my wallet and I always have it when I think things between me and him couldn't get any worse. To all of you that has a dad like mine I know how ya'll feel!!

i love this song...
i always crying when i heard this song..
this song is same like i feel.
my father always force me to be himself..
to do all things he want..
but i cannot.
and sometimes i feel so annoyed with him.
but i realize, he just want the best for us!!

i dont hate my dad but i feel he doesn't understand, parents need to understand that kids are people too. I hate it when my parents say she's my daughter, umm hello, i am a human too, just because I'm your kid doesn't mean i want to be like you. I don't want to be perfect, i want to be me.

I heard this song this morning. Almost cried. I have heard it before this morning but it never affected me like it did this morning. Sometimes I feel like my parents just dont want me. I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this song, Im definately downloading it:)!

The reason I love this song is because it brought me back to earth. As a parent sometimes we dont think about what is right for our kids but what is best and sometimes what is best is for them is to let them find their own path. I love my son and I found myself doing what my father did to me trying to make him do better then I did but I didnt do any better then my father just was as unhappy as him. I was in the car station scanning and came across this song and I thought to my self "You stupid old B******* that's what you are doing to your son." I made the decision to change right then and there. My son will find his own way and he'll be better person for it. If he doesnt do as well as he wanted it doesnt matter because we'll have each other and will get through it. I'm truly sorry for those of you I have read your stories I can only wish your parent/s maybe read this and understand they are only passing on what they got unhappiness. Good luck to you all. A Dad

I've been constantly searching for my dad's approval of everything. Nothing I do is good for him, he thinks that everything I do is just stupid and that I need to do something better all the time.

My parents split up when I was a baby, and he was just never there for me, I'd go to his and he wouldnt speak, I'd get emotionally abused by my step-mum, and then he wouldnt talk to me for ages. I can't remember a happy time with him. He now lives in a different country and doesnt talk to me at all now.

I wish things were different, but they aren't.

i love this songg. i hate my dad with a passion. i dont even thinkk thats my real dad. no lie, i do not look like him a bit. i have my moms ex husband before my dad eyebrows and eyes. i hate my dad thats it. he brings all these hooter girls and he only wanted me to blackmale my mom not to take his money in the divorce.

honestly too the people who dont have a dad,
i rather not have one. no lie.

Well actually i really love my mom and sometimes i hate her because she wants me to be perfect like her. and she never ever say a word to my sister, all because she is sick and i'm the one who's in charge to help her. in my studies she always say"aim High" even though i cant and thats all i can. and i can't tell her what i feel about what she says. its just that i respect her and she's older than me. if ever you read this mom i want you to realize that no body's perfect thats all.

Me and my dad do not get along most of the time. He and my mom divorced when I was 4 months,and now he has a new family. Don't get me wrong,I will always love my dad,stepmom,and brothers,it's just sometimes I feel like..
Im not good enough,and that i'll never be good enough. In fact,I know that. They disapprove of everything I do,and get mad over the littlest things. They dont like the clothes I wear (jeans/tee's),they'd rather dress me up than let me be myself. Im afraid to play this song to my dad,because of his reaction to it. Ever since I turned 12,we havent had the best relationship. And I hate going over there. Yes,hate. They dont approve of my clothes,my music,or most of my friends. So dad,if you ever read this,Im sorry I cant be perfect. I spent so many nights crying myself to sleep,wondering what did I ever do wrong? Thats why I never want to go over there.Or why I always go outside. Im not happy the way we are and I know that he's not willing to change. And,thats something I geuss I have to live with. Im sorry. Even though I shouldnt be. Im sorry,for whatever I did. For whatever happened between us,to make our relationship like this. Im sorry.

It's not good to say that you hate your parents, either if its your mom or your dad because thats just how you feel, not really waht you mean. I havn't seen my dad all my life and my mom was on drugs. I have to admit that i really wish i had a father in my life but now im 16 and its just way to late. Life goes on and you should leave some things in the past. I know how you all feel and feel the pain. Im sure all of you are good people and none of you deserve to be treated unfairly. But think of it this way...it's their lost if they dont want to be in their own childrens lives! :) Stay happy about who you are and what you have. Dont worry about the judgement, because while some people are judgingg you, their life isn't PERFECT either.

I realy don't h8t my dad but I just wish he wasn't always so disappointed in me. I play sports and do well in them and he only comes to about 5 games a yr, and I get mostly really good grades but he always say I could do better no matter how good they are.And then of course he always compares us to other familes and asks why me anad my brother can't behave as well as some other familes kid even though I barely get into trouble. *sigh* I luv u dad and I'm just sorry I can't be perfect. btw amazong song Simple Plan is such a cool band.

i love this so it reallt hits home with me.I fight with both my parents constantly, but mostly with my dad. I hate it if my dad gets real mad he gets right in my face, he hasnt hit me in a while but im scared he will, he's so much bigger and stronger than me, i admit it im scared of my own dad. mum does nothing, im not sure if she even cares, neither of my sisters get treated like i do im not being melodramatic either. Im not even sure if im actually theirs mum had 4 misscarriages before i came along and i know they were looking into adoption pluss i look like neither of my parents at all i have to go back 2 generations or the distant reletives to find resembelenses (sp?) i know i cant spell anyway its a great song

i hate my dad. he was in the navy for a while. he hit my mom a lot and she just sat there and took it for the sake of me and my siblings. but when he tore up the family photo and my mom found my sister trying to put it back together she finally left him. i never saw him again and when we tryed to call him he had a whole new family. that jerk owes my mom millions in child support. paul douglas sack... keep your damn money we have a wonderful step dad to which you shallow in comparison.

A boy of 17
my friends son, who was like my own
chose to go live with his loser dad
because he never had

He didn't complain
about all of his pain
His dad didn't care
and he was never there
He shared his life,pills,and lies
he thought that the proof
was to teach Zack the truth
about all his dreams
and how they never will be
and to cover them up
with downers and sleep
to lie and to blame
so you can do it again
the future is there
to me Zack was scared.

Zack was left alone for two days.
his father came home from the weekend in jail,(without contacting the mom to come take him while he was incarcerated).
The father found Zack sleeping that a.m.
Went to work and upon returning Zack was still asleep.
The next day he allowed Zack to sleep, until a girlfriend came over, upon hearing how long the boy was sleeping, checked and found him in a coma.
Zack has not died, he will be a vegetable for the rest of his life.
He cannot even open his own eyes, he just lays there.
Forever

I think sometimes its better to never have had a dad
