Anaruina Rossio

This song...

Sisvy Giffuni

I still can't listen to this without crying.

RHPSmagenta

This was my childhood with my parents. Dad has been dead several years now. But my mother still acts like this. Nothing I do is correct. I am always wrong even in fields of study I have researched sense I was 5 years old. I am never good enough in her eyes.

Jewel Hendon

I played this song everyday while I attended college. My parents still don't accept me for who I am. I've cried myself to sleep so many nights...

a.m. trumble

Boomers. Amirite?

Byenia

Haven't heard this song in a really long time.

Sharkie The Cat

I feel like everytime I'm told these I just screw it up worse.

Sadie Greene

parent's song to me.. :(

RoxxiRay

I love this song, it always gets me so emotional and sometimes, I cry and I just understand this song for much, I'm going through so much right now. And, this song, just Wow!!! 

ncbbubbles

no it's not about that why would her voice inside her head say "how many times do i have to tell you to hurry up" or "how many times to i have to tell you to hurry up"

ednarox2

I think the song is about how society expects us to be perfect, and she is saying all the things her family says to her.

Ellen Yates

it's about an eating disorder. the voice inside her head controlling the disorderis the one talking

Brittany Fiechter

it's basically parents speaking to their son/daughter. Their best is what's expected. " sometimes isn't enough". Perfection is the only option. It's a parent who is telling their child that they will only love them if they are perfect.

Karr Johnson

This was so my mother, the competitive one, who wanted you to win at everything & make up for her mistakes.

Al ice

Yep...those songs are perfect for each other :( Sucks when you can relate to these kinds of songs >.<

Nikki Vanslyke

this was my song for my momma for years. sad but true.

Samantha Sauer

mmmm, actually it stems from Alanis's earlier eating disorder.

Christine Flores-Cozza

@Dork167 Oh sweet heart, I get it and I am sorry. You ARE good enough.

Christine Flores-Cozza

@heywannafallinlove I think you don't understand because you can't relate. I think then, that is a good thing. I do get the lyrics. It is very sad. Parents that should never have or did not really want the kids they born. But you know what? We grow up and grow on...but sometimes we regress and need songs like this....ah hell.
