It was never enough
You were never enough
I kept craving behind your back
I kept needing all you lacked
But I couldn’t tell you what was missing
I couldn’t tell you we weren’t kissing
And I knew there was something more
Something far off this deserted shore
I know I didn’t give you what you deserved
That I always seemed distantly reserved
It wasn’t fair of me to control you
It wasn’t fair of me to ignore you

It was never enough
You were never enough
I couldn’t say yes, you know
So all you heard was no
And I commanded your sympathy
Forever when you’re with me
But when you need my support
I have nothing to retort
So I leave you on your own
And pretend I have nothing to atone
Forgive me ignorance
All of my repentance

It was never enough
You were never enough
As human desires go
Mine will forever grow
Anything you can give me
Won’t be good enough to see
And so I turn my back on you
And can’t I dream this is true
Give me the butter knife
It won’t be long to end my life
The longer I live, the more I take
I can’t stand the thought, it will break

It was never enough
You were never enough
My royal blood bled through
And I keep forgetting about you
It can’t go on like this
And I know it won’t end with kiss
You deserve a better heart
I can’t do my part
My fire is bright beside
But I know where to hide
From your latching love
That seeks out goddess above

It was never enough
You were never enough
To bring me to my knees
Though you asked please
I cannot look upon your face
Without feeling my disgrace
Further away I fall
Knowing you won’t stall
Maybe if I could see you often
We could find something hidden
But now I want to go away
But just for you, I will stay
