You left me wrapped up in hope
Hanging on to a lifeline rope
You filled my head with false pretence
Left my world devoid of any common sense
Was I not good enough for you?
Was I just a stop you were passing through.
Don't look at the ground, look at my face
Or are you so appalled that you needed space.
Was I ever good enough?
And don't lie to me cuz I can uncover your bluff
When did you start looking for someone new
Was it when my love for you doubled and grew?
You waited til I was hooked when you decided to disappear
For some reason you thought I wouldn't notice you weren't here
But when will you understand that you're the air I breath
That without you around my blood starts to seethe
When will you realize, that to you're my one
That this love we have is no game or fun
That the bond we share is solid and strong
But unfortunately that didn't last for long
Why am I not good enough?
Was I not worthy of your love?
Does she care for you the way I do?
Does she lie and sugarcoat what's true?
I keep asking questions but I don't hear a word
And distance and silence are becoming absurd
I keep waiting and waiting, but really for what?
For someone who left me with a punch in my gut?
Why do I keep doing this to myself? Why?
I keep my mouth shut and silently cry
I'm not bulletproof when it comes to you
And each shot fired goes right through
I'm not enough and I know I'll never be
I could be in denial, for that I issue a decree
My self esteem is at an all time low
And I'm for no one, of that I know
I don't want you in my life anymore
I lost sight of what I was fighting for
You chose someone else over me
And left me alone out at sea
I've accepted the fact that I'm no one's choice
That no one will stand me or my voice
That I'll never be loved, not even for a day
I've accepted that and moved on, out of your way
I'll never be enough to anyone out there
So thank you for making me think you care
Now the doors of my heart will be forever locked
And the roads leading there will always be blocked
