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
" It's one-o-clock." Logan's gruff voice called from the bottom of the stairs as Rogue entered the front door.
" Yes it is." She answered, keeping her voice low so as not to disturb the people who were sleeping.
" You have school in the morning."
" Logan please don't start this again." Rogue begged, tiredness dripping from her voice.
" Someone has to. You can't stay out past midnight when your curfew is eleven, and you know it. You're grounded." Logan kept his voice to a low rumble, blocking her exit by stairs.
" You aren't my father!" Rogue hissed at him.
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
" No one here is, Rogue. Face it, you have no parents. So those of us here who know what's best for you-"
" How can you know what's best? You don't even know me!"
" You're right I don't! I don't know because you won't tell anyone! How are we supposed to help you with anything-"
" I don't want your help Logan. What I want is to be left alone." Logan stood up slowly, heaving a sigh.
" Fine." A worried look passed over Rogue's face for a moment. Logan started slowly up the steps.
" Logan?"
" I'll leave you alone like you asked. Have a nice life kid."
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
" Logan, is there a reason you're ignoring Rogue?" Scott asked a week later at breakfast, unable to remain silent.
" She wanted to be left alone." Logan continued to eat his scrambled eggs.
'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

A/N: You keep asking for more so I keep giving you more, but I'll have to find a new song soon. There's only so much you can do with these lyrics, great as they are.
