Erin O'Brien - Perfect

I'm supposed to smile
Supposed to join in conversations
Even if its not what I want
I'm supposed to laugh
Supposed to get excited
It don't matter if I'm playing a part
But the truth is I can't
I'm breaking down inside
I'm not the girl you want me to be
No matter how hard I've tried
But if you could see
What its doing to me
You'd see that my head's in a mess
I'm overthinking
Everything I'm doing
Just tryna do my best to impress
I'm just tryna make it through this life
But its so hard sometimes
And I just can't be perfect all the time
I try to talk
Try to join with everybody
Not thinking about how I feel
I try to joke
Try to make everyone happy
But it just feels like nothing is real
Cause the truth is I can't
I'm breaking down inside
I'm not the girl you want me to be
No matter how hard I've tried
But if you could see
What its doing to me
You'd see that my head's in a mess
I'm overthinking
Everything I'm doing
Just tryna do my best to impress
I'm just tryna make it through this life
But its so hard sometimes
And I just can't be perfect all the time
No, no
No, I just can't be perfect all the time
No, no, oh
But if you could see
What its doing to me
You'd see that my head's in a mess
I'm overthinking
Everything I'm doing
Just tryna do my best to impress
I'm just tryna make it through this life
But its so hard sometimes
And I just can't be perfect all the time
I just can't be perfect all the time
