Nights like this I question my worth
Just up at night asking my demons why
Am I worth it
My am I nobody’s perfect
I tell myself I’m more than enough
Yet I can’t quell the feeling I’m not good enough
I hide behind a tough veil
And all I feel I ever do is fail
But back to my demons
With my back against the glass wall of my ego
Why am I not enough
I’m a lot of things but I never seem to be enough
You ever try to block it out
But it’s not enough
Your not as tough as you wish you were
Your not as handsome as you could be
Your not stuffing this back to the recesses of your mind
It’s kinda said this is what you think at 2am
You lay there and cry
Even that’s not enough
Your pathetic
Is this the pathetic thing to think
All your weak thoughts seem to reach the brink
And all you can ponder is your not good enough
Disgusted by your weak thoughts
Only to be disgusted by yourself
Where the **** is your mental health
Where’s that wealth of knowledge
As you stand on a mental ledge
You jump and plummet into the sea of dark thoughts
Unable to see the summit
You sink into the sea of thought
As deep as it is Dark
Seems no light can peak through to you
You were never Enough
