(Verse 1 — tight, aggressive phrasing)
I bled for you, yeah I gave it all
Built you a throne just to watch me fall
Bit my tongue while you fed your pride
Now I’m the ghost that you buried alive
Every breath that I gave away
Lit your path while I burned in place
You took my heart like a loaded gun
Pulled the trigger just to feel someone
(Pre-Chorus — rising tension)
You wear my silence like a crown
But I can hear it breaking down
I bent until I fucking snapped
Now there’s no turning back
(Chorus — SLOWER, HUGE, SUSTAINED — Dio-inspired)
It’s NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
No, it’s NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
I gave you fire, you gave me the flood
I gave you faith, you were drinking my blood
It’s NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
(stretch and layer vocals)
I was the strength that you threw away
Now I’m the storm that you couldn’t face
SCREAMING YOUR NAME—
But it’s never enough…
(Verse 2 — sharper, more venom)
You wore my trust like a cheap disguise
Spat out truth while you fed me lies
Every “thank you” was dead on arrival
Just another cut for your survival
I crawled through glass just to make you whole
Gave you everything—body and soul
But your hunger’s a bottomless grave
You take it all, still you’re never saved
(Pre-Chorus — more explosive)
You fed on everything I gave
Turned my mercy into chains
Now I see it in your eyes—
You don’t care who you break
(Chorus — even bigger, more layered)
It’s NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
No, it’s NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
I gave you life, you gave me the knife
Twisted it slow just to feel alive
It’s NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
(hold and harmonize)
I was the one that you leaned upon
Now I’m the war that you started from
CALLING YOU OUT—
But it’s never enough…
(Bridge — build into breakdown)
I was your crutch, your cure, your sin
The place you ran when the dark set in
But you drained me down to nothing left—
Now feel the weight of your regret
(Breakdown — heavy, percussive, punch lines)
Take it all—
Take what’s left of me
Break it down—
You won’t get a thing
You want more?
You’re gonna choke on it
You want blood?
Fucking drown in it
You mistook my heart for weakness
Now you’re staring at the demon
YOU MADE ME—
(Final Chorus — biggest, most dramatic, Dio-style peak)
It was NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
(huge, drawn-out, almost choir-backed)
No, it was NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
I gave you everything under the sun
Now I’m the reckoning you can’t outrun
It was NEVER ENOOOOOUGH…
(hold, then drop instrumentation briefly)
I was the light that you cast aside—
NOW I’M THE FIRE THAT WON’T FUCKING DIE
It’s NEVER ENOUGH.
(Outro — quiet but cold)
Not anymore.
Not for you.
Never again.
FUUUUCK, YOU!
