Not Enough For You

Verse 1
I used to think we were unbreakable
Two years felt like forever in my hands
I gave you pieces I was scared to show
Built you up while I could barely stand

All my friends could see the cracks
They told me I was fading fast
But I kept choosing you instead
While losing who I was

Pre-Chorus
I held you when you couldn’t breathe
Walked you outside so no one would see
You cried in my arms, I stayed all night
But when I needed you — you were out of sight

Chorus
All my friends were there for me, but you weren’t
You left me crying alone in a cage
I couldn’t breathe, I couldn’t speak
You made a joke of all my pain
And when I finally said how I felt
You called me crazy, turned the blame
I gave you everything I had
Still I was never enough for you

Verse 2
Sixteen candles, my birthday night
You found a way to steal the light
Sat downstairs, made it about you
Like you always somehow do

Every time it was your tears
Everybody had to hear
But when I was breaking down
I was invisible in the crowd

You let your friends talk shit about me
You never stood up, never chose me
But I defended you every time
Even when you crossed the line

Pre-Chorus
You said it’s weird I’m still in pain
Like healing’s something I can fake
But you drained me till I disappeared
And blamed me for the mess you made

Chorus
All my friends were there for me, but you weren’t
You left me shaking in my own skin
I lost myself trying to keep you close
Forgot the girl I’ve always been
And when I spoke up one last time
The whole world turned against my name
I gave you everything I had
Still I was never enough for you

Bridge
I’m done shrinking for your ego
Done being silent so you glow
I was sweet, I was loyal
You were poison dressed as royal

I’m finding pieces of myself
You never cared to help me hold
You don’t get to break my heart
And still pretend you’re made of gold

Final Chorus (stronger)
My friends were there — and now I see it
You were the one who let me fall
You left me crying in that cage
But I’m not trapped there anymore
I can breathe without your voice
I can stand without your chains
I gave you everything I had
Now I’m taking back my name

Outro
You said I wasn’t enough
But I was too much for you.
