A/N: This is a songfic from Draco's POV. It's graduation day at Hogwart's
and Draco wants to tell his father how he feels. No flames please, this is
my first fic ever, and it might be a little off, but I'm proud!! R&R!!!
"Perfect - Simple Plan"
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
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
I'm 17 now. Sitting in these uncomfortable plastic chairs, waiting for my name to be called. I should be proud. I should be honoured. I'm in the top 3 percent of my class. But I'm not.
'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 father. I know you think I should have should've done better. I've never been smart enough for you. Mean enough for you. Strong enough for you...And for that, I'm sorry.
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
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
I fell in love. But you didn't approve. I'm sorry. He loved me back, but I pushed him away, because your son marrying the Boy Who Lived would disgrace the Malfoy name. I would do anything for you father.
'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
Do you remember when I was 11, and got my Acceptance Letter from Hogwarts. You got mad because you wanted me to go to Durmstrang. And I stood there, as you beat me, but it wasn't my fault. I wanted you to love me, so I didn't even flinch.
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
But now. I see my mistakes. I see yours too. I wish I could go back. If I stood up to you, maybe you wouldn't have killed my mother. And it pains me, so much, that you made me watch. You cast an unforgivable! You should have gone to Azkaban. But who was I to let it be done.
'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 really am sorry. But I don't want this to happen to my family too. So goodbye father, I wish you well and I hope someday, you can have the son you've always wanted.
