Wasn't Good Enough
from the first day we met
something told me to ignore
the feelings inside me that you stirred
but i didnt listen and wish i had
cuz now im hurting while you sleep in bed
i fell in love with you that 1st day
yet now i wish id run away
i always knew i wasnt enough
when you held me asleep
yet you called out anothers name
why didnt i see i wasnt enough
when youd chat with random women
while im all forgotten, swollen with our child
i wasnt good enough
as you met people behind my back
but had the gall to say you loved me
why wasnt i enough?
why dont you just go already?
why rub it in my face
yet say you love me?
ive known for years
that i would never be
good enough for you to truly want me
all these years ive been by your side
i gave you 2 wonderful children
ive endured your familys dislike of me
yet its been all for nothing
i wasnt good enough to keep
your attention and love
and i will never be good enough
to you then or ever
so forget my dreams of us together
you can have anything or one you want
i cant take this hurt any longer
when i see your eyes wonder
i wont keep being hurt
when you talk and laugh with another girl
because i wasnt good enough
im setting you free of me
