[Verse 1]
Taught to clench my jaw
“Real men don’t ever cry”
Now every word I swallow
Turns to thunder in my mind
Laugh it off at parties
Then stare too long at my drink
They say I’m such good company
But they don’t know I overthink
Did I talk too much
Was that joke too sharp
Why’d her face go blank
Why’s my chest so dark
[Chorus]
Do I ruin everything I touch
Leave cracks in every hand I hold
Every “I’m fine” feels like a bluff
Every warm heart I turn cold
Am I enough or just enough to break it
Enough to scare you when I finally say it
If I show the ache
Will you pull away
(Am I enough
or just enough to break)
[Verse 2]
Father said “stand up straight”
Never said “it’s okay to shake”
So I learned to fix what’s broken
But I never fixed my own shame
Scroll through old messages
Count the ghosts in my phone
Common thread in every story
Is me, standing there alone
You say “just talk to me”
I freeze, then change the subject
You leave, I write a paragraph
That you’ll never get
[Chorus]
Do I ruin everything I touch
Leave cracks in every hand I hold
Every “I’m fine” feels like a bluff
Every warm heart I turn cold
Am I enough or just enough to break it
Enough to scare you when I finally say it
If I show the ache
Will you pull away
(Am I enough
or just enough to break)
[Bridge]
What if I’m not broken
Just tired of this mask
What if I’m not poison
Just scared that you’ll react
If I let these walls collapse
Let the flood run down my face
Would you see a weak disappointment
Or a man trying to change
[Chorus]
Do I ruin everything I touch
Or is that just the story I repeat
Every “I’m fine” feels like a crutch
Keeping me from getting what I need
Am I enough, more than enough to make it
Enough to stay when the earthquake shakes it
If I show the ache
Will you choose to stay
(Am I enough
please tell me I’m enough)
