Why

by Viola   Sep 27, 2007


You know you have so much in your life
Take one look around and you can see
You have the friends and the family
Some people only dream of
I guess it's easy to say, "My life's great"

But you still lay there at night unable to sleep
Tears falling from your cold eyes
Soaking the pillow you lay your head upon
And you wonder why
Why is it not enough sometimes?

And everyone says, "Oh you're so pretty"
But you fail to see your beauty
On the other side of that piece of glass
Because from your viewpoint
There's no more light in your eyes

All your friends think you're amazing
They take one look at you and say
"You're talented. I wish I was that good."
And they joke that you'll be famous one day
But you're the only one who doesn't see it

It doesn't make sense when you're so perfect
Why is it that you still feel like nothing?
At the end of the day you know you have a good life
But you still cry, and you keep wondering why
Why is it not enough sometimes?

If my life is so great, then why
Why is it still not enough sometimes?
