Never Enough for You

[Intro]
Teeth grit
Nails in my palm
You say “it’s fine”
But load another bomb
[Verse 1]
I tear my hands to bone
Building thrones out of my failures
You sit and watch it all collapse
Then ask for something greater
Every scar you gave me
I carved into my tongue
So every word I spit for you
Still tastes like coming undone
[Chorus]
I will never be enough for you
I could bleed this whole heart dry
Still lose
You move the line every time I get through
Every breath
Every bruise
Still not enough for you (for you)
[Verse 2]
You turn my hope to homework
Red marks on every try
You underline my smallest flaws
Like they’re the reason why
I bend
I break
I beg
You just raise the bar
You call it “motivation”
I call it one more scar
[Pre-Chorus]
How many versions of me
Do I have to kill to fit your view? (hey!)
I bury another heartbeat
In a grave you’ll never visit too
[Chorus]
I will never be enough for you
I could bleed this whole heart dry
Still lose
You move the line every time I get through
Every breath
Every bruise
Still not enough for you (for you)
[Breakdown]
Drag my name
Through your perfect teeth
Say it louder
Till I can’t breathe
If I’m so flawed
Then let me go
Why keep a dog
You only throw stones? (yeah)
[Bridge]
I’m done breaking just to make you whole
Done setting myself on fire for your cold
If I’m never enough in your eyes
Then watch me walk away this time
[Chorus]
I will never be enough for you
I could bleed this whole heart dry
Still lose
You move the line every time I get through
But I’m done chasing a ghost I outgrew
You were never worth what I put me through
[Outro]
Fists unclench
Silence like a wound
I’m not enough for you
But I’m finally enough for me

Crushing metalcore with low-tuned guitars in alternating gallop and half-time chugs, barked male vocals in the verses and desperate melodic screams in the chorus; drums swing between blast-adjacent bursts and stomping breakdowns, with gang shouts on key lines and a final drop into a slow, dissonant outro groove, metalcore
