Trying I try to be your little girl. I try to make you proud. I try to be so perfect, But always screw up somehow. Why can't I be better? Why do I always mess up? Why aren't I as good as I want? Do I not try enough? I try to be your sissy. I try to get along. I try to live up to you, But somehow I'm always wrong. I say the wrong thing, Or slip into a small lie. I just can't seem to get it right. But please forgive me... I try.
