What if I haven’t been good enough?
Put my best foot forward
Shown you the love I have
Lord knows I’ve tried
To be a good man
I can see the distant look in your eyes
And I begin to crumble
It gets so much worse from here
And I dont think I am ready
To weather another storm
For another endless heartache
First confusion, then anger
I know you’re scared
Memories more distant
Like walking in a thick fog
And I’m so sorry I can’t help you
Find the ones you love
We’ve held on as long as we could
I have to let you go
Because if I don’t
We won’t have anything left for each other
But to leave you in this unfamiliar place
It feels like giving up.
I wish for one moment my voice was clear
And you truly understood
I did it out of love.
