Do you know
What it’s like
To be so different from you?
Yet feel like I’ll never be enough?
You say all the “right things”
And I fall to your feet
Like a love sick puppy
Hoping you mean every word
But you’re not there
When I lay in bed at night
And I think to myself
“He’d get bored of me”
And do you have any idea
Any idea, in the slightest
What it feels like to know
I'll never be e.n.o.u.g.h.
