Disclaimer: I do not own anything besides the plot, but technically I don't own that either because if Ms.Rowling didn't create her plots, then I wouldn't have mine. I don't even own the song. That's Simple Plan's. (Simple Plan ROCKS!)

Hey dad look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did I grow up according to plan?
And do you think I'm wasting my time doing things I wanna do?
But it hurts when you disapprove all along
Percy sat in his favorite armchair in his flat. He just sat there, and what came to mind? His father.
And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
I can't pretend that
I'm alright
And you can't change me
'Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
He always tried to please his parents. But then, when he got older and worked for the ministry, it seemed that he was closing them out. No! Wrong! THEY were closing HIM out. Yes, that's it. That's what went through his mind.
I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
All the days you spend with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don't care anymore
Now Penelope was pregnant. As a matter of fact she was now Penelope Weasley. But no one knew that. Only he and Penelope.
And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
I can't stand another fight
And nothing's alright
'Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Percy never meant to close his family out. It was an accident. Now...Now they would need him most. But the family fight...It would be too awkward. No...They couldn't go back.
Nothing's gonna change the things that you said
Nothing's gonna make this right again
Please don't turn your back
I can't believe it's hard
Just to talk to you
But you don't understand
He knew he would have to go back. Back to his real family. It haunted him at night. So much that he couldn't sleep. But nothing WILL be right again. Not a single thing.
'Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
'Cuz we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
"I'm sorry, Dad." Percy whispered to the empty room. "I can't be perfect..."
