As a child, i was always a shadow.
My sister always got my light.
I always tried so hard to be like her.
so my head hung low.
I was looking for a reason to fight.

I was never enough

As a teen, i was invisible.
Walking through the halls.
My mom told me i was crazy,
but the truth of it all....
i just wanted to die.

i was never enough.

I lost my father to a family he loved more.
My first true love found some new girl.
the pain inside me, caused me to cut.
yet even then...

I was never enough.

As a adult, I'm controlled like a animal.
Do this, do that!
If i don't i get a wrath
I do my best, im a mother and thats my job.
At the end of the day

I was never enough

One day when I'm gone,
One day when i die.
Someone will remeber me and think...

You were enough, I love you, good bye
