Disclaimer: I do not own this song or seaquest. The song is called Perfect
and it belongs to Simple Plan.
Another Lucas/Lawrence songfic. Hopefully I'll make more on a different topic soon.
THANK YOU TO CADNOBACH AND JUPITERS-GALAXY FOR THEIR REVEIWS!!!!
"Dammit Lucas!" Lawrence's voice echoed in Lucas Wolenczak's head. "cant you do anything right?" Lucas was only trying to improve the vocorder, unfortunately, it turned out a little.messy. Lucas hated coming home for shore leave, cause it meant coming home to his father.
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
Lucas just wanted to make his father proud. If anything Lawrence should be the most proudest father in the world! His son graduated from Stanford University at age 14 and is now working on the UEO's most advanced research vessel as the Chief Computer Analyst!
And now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I'm never going be good enough for you
Can't pretend that I'm all right
And you you can't change me
But Lucas had had enough of it. He was sick of trying to impress his father. He had a new family now. His friends on the Seaquest, and he didn't need his father anymore.
Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
Sorry I can't be perfect
Now its just too late
And we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
It hurt though, to not be able to look up to your own father. He used to think his father was like superman. Strong and smart, who loved his kids. But those days were long over. His father didn't care about him.
I try not to think about the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero
All the days you spent with me now seem so far away
And it feels like you don't care anymore
He would be going back to Seaquest in two days, and he was thankful for that.
I must be the only member of Seaquest that hates coming to their family.
And now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
Can't stand another fight
And nothings all right
Lucas took a deep breath and went to find his father. They needed to talk.
Cause we lost it all
Nothing last forever
Sorry I can't be perfect
And its just too late
And we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
When Lucas found his father at his desk, He immediately forgot what he was going to say. All the things his father said to him in the past had hurt and there was no way to erase the past, but if he could just get his father to listen.Maybe they'll be hope for the future.
Nothings gonna change the things that you said
Nothings gonna make this right again
Please don't turn your back
I can't believe its hard just to talk to you but you don't understand
With another deep breath Lucas approached his father. "Dad? I think we should talk." Lawrence looked up from his work.
"Lucas," He said annoyed "You know better not to bother me when I'm working."
"Yeah, well your always working." Lucas replied.
"My works important to me."
"More important then me?" asked Lucas. Lawrence looked like he was searching for an answer.
"Of course not. I'm your father." He finally said.
"I have a new father now. We may not be related, but he's treated me like a son. He's cared about me and listened to me. Something you were suppose to do."
"Lucas.Maybe."
"Its too late. All my life you've expected me to be Perfect, but I can't be. Well I'm sick of it! I'm 18 now, and I'm legal age to move out, and that's what I'm going to do.
Cause we lost it all
And we can't go back
Sorry I can't be perfect
Now its just too late
And we can't go back
Im sorry I can't be perfect
Sorry about the ending! I had a hard time thinking of how to finish it. As I said before, I'm not really a good writer, I only write for my own entertainment.
