Golden Plates - Perfect Lyrics

I wanted to be perfect
I dreamed it every time I slept
That I might feel affection
Come from your direction
Instead I'm someone you'd forget

Every diamond in the rough
Never thinks that they're enough
And so they start to pray
That maybe one fine day
That they'll be worthy of your love

I'm proud to be an American
I don't know where I fit in
I spent years in college
But the only knowledge
That I gained, nothing means anything

It's never enough
All those years we wasted
Never enough
Success we thought we tasted
It's never enough
We're all so frustrated
It's never enough
It's never enough

I thought I could be perfect
Please don't mind my being direct
My last day could come any day
And we're all dying anyways
So what's the point of having regrets

It's never enough
All those years we wasted
Never enough
The success we thought we tasted
It's never enough
We're all so frustrated
It's never enough
It's never enough
