Chapter 3: As I Am

A Chapter by Elizabeth Porterfield
"

Wishing people could accept me as I am...

"
Please forgive me
I've failed you once again
I can't get it right
I just can't get it right
It's not good enough
It's just not good enough
Ever for you
And I'm sorry but I'm through

(Chorus)
I'm sorry
That I can't be good enough
As I am
And trust me
If I could I'd make it all better
But I can't
So forgive me
If the good inside me
Can't outweigh the bad
And know that I'm sorry
That I'm just not good enough
As I am

God I'm sorry
I can't say it enough
To get it through to you
To get this through to you
I wanna make it right
I wish that I could make it right
Once and for all
But that's something I can't do

(Chorus)
I'm sorry
That I can't be good enough
As I am
And trust me
If I could I'd make it all better
But I can't
So forgive me
If the good inside me
Can't outweigh the bad
And know that I'm sorry
That I'm just not good enough
As I am

Forgive me
Please
I've done everything wrong
So forgive me
Please
I'm trying to stay strong
But it's hard to be good
It's so hard to be good
Knowing that I've been bad
But I can't erase that
Yeah it's hard to be good
It's so hard to be good
Knowing that I've been bad
But I can't erase the past

So forgive me
If the good inside me
Can't outweigh the bad
And know that I'm sorry
That I'm just not good enough
As I am

(Chorus)
I'm sorry
That I can't be good enough
As I am
And trust me
If I could I'd make it all better
But I can't
So forgive me
If the good inside me
Can't outweigh the bad
And know that I'm sorry
That I'm just not good enough
As I am
