Good Enough For You (Not Finished)

by Toni   Mar 26, 2005


- Isn't about one person in particular, too many mixed emotions...

I know that I’m not perfect, perfect I’ll never be
I’m just trying to be myself; its so hard to be me

You look at me so cold, with that icy frozen stare
Telling me that you feel bad, and that I don’t even care

I try to say, something back, but words just won’t come out
I hold your insults and feel so bare, that I can only shout

And its hard sticking up for myself, when self hatred fills my head
And its hard staying in this life, when sorrow wants me dead

So why don’t you go and turn your back, that’s what you always do
I’m trying my very hardest; trying to be good enough for you

But good enough I’ll never be; just like my lost perfection
I’m running around inside my head, craving your affection

It’s so twisted…do you think we’ll ever mend?
Can’t you see our love beginning to bend?

I’ll sit so still, like I promised… and tonight I’ll cry for you
I know you’ll lie in the other room whilst I wonder what to do

So hold that little cup….and sip your coffee as black as night
I promise while you lie there still, that I am not alright

Be careful whilst you hold my heart; its not as strong as you think
It could break so easily…it could break within a blink
