"Enough"
Not good enough to eat your meal
It hurts so bad, but you will not squeal
No matter how many trials you take
It always ends in heartache
You think you’ll never seal that deal
To you, life is a constant hamster wheel
Nothing comes to your appeal
The thought that keeps you awake,
Not good enough
Well, I can tell you with time, all wounds heal
You are perfect, and someday, before you all will kneel
You deserve that juicy steak
Don’t forget, it’s okay to take a break
You’re worth the world, so don’t feel
Not good enough
