I could never say no to you
I do whatever you ask of me
never asking myself, "would this make me happy?"
it will always be "this will make him happy."

I've always done everything to please you
from the way I talk and dress
to the way i act, and the shows I watch
even the music I listen to
not even on purpose

subconsciously I have become the person that could make you happy
the person you could rely on and trust
the person you could love

I've done everything I can to receive your validation, your approval, your love

but no matter what I do,
why isn't anything enough?
what can I do to be better?
what can I do for you to love me?
