But I wasn’t Enough

I remember it all

every moment I shared with you

but they are just haunting reminders

That I wasn’t enough for you

 

I could’ve checked all your boxes

I could’ve been the reality to all your promises

but it wasn’t enough

 

I could’ve let down the iron gates to my heart

and I almost did

Until I found out about Naomi, Alexis, and the others from the bar

I’ve never felt so sick

 

You had my head spinning

while all the demons were grinning

Cause they knew what I refused to see

That I was doomed from the beginning

and you could never really love me

 

You could hold my hands

You could explain yourself a thousand times

But the betrayal on your lips

couldn’t bring the light back in my eyes

 

How could this happen you ask?

Oh, you don’t understand?

How is that possible if you were only playing with my head?

 

Imagine the look on my face when the jig was up

The hurt and numbness of sorrow set in

and I didn’t seem so tough

Probably, because I wasn’t enough

 

I think I need you to say I wasn’t enough
