Not Good Enough
So keen to get it right
Desperate to stop the cycle
I gave you love, trust and freedom
Used to turn away from the light
The lies never showed on your face
My heart longing to believe you
Whatever you do don’t say it out loud
Now bags are packed for a brand new place
Why didn’t I give you more of my time?
Why didn’t I try even harder?
Why didn’t I listen to all of you?
How could you ever commit a crime?
So I was never good enough
My heart knows that I have failed
New opportunities you can get without me
I send you away with all my love
