Never Enough
Falling Short: Unveiling the Struggle for Approval
Lyrics
I try to be a hero
I strive to be a hero
Play it straight and narrow
Acting honestly and within moral bounds
Be a good sport
Being a good and fair competitor
You just run for cover
Seeking refuge or protection
I'm just left to wonder
Left with questions and uncertainties
Why I'm falling short
Feeling inadequate or not meeting expectations
Don't I have
Questioning if I possess what you desire
Your kind of stuff
Similar qualities or attributes
It's never enough
Despite efforts, it's not sufficient
It's never enough
Repetition emphasizing inadequacy
You say I'm alright
You claim I'm fine, but it's deceptive
It's a bluff
False reassurance, not meeting expectations
It's never enough
Insufficient, never meeting the standard
Never enough
Continued emphasis on insufficiency
I'm on my way you're calling
In transit, you're not committing
You tell me you're not coming
Assurance of non-arrival
Not your kind of crowd
Not fitting into your preferred social group
They ask too many questions
They inquire excessively, show too much care
Show too much affection
Excessive expressions of affection
Make me laugh too loud
Laughing too loudly, not conforming
Don't I have
Questioning if I possess what you desire (repeated)
Your kind of stuff
Similar qualities or attributes (repeated)
It's never enough
Despite efforts, it's not sufficient (repeated)
It's never enough
Repetition emphasizing inadequacy (repeated)
You say I'm alright
You claim I'm fine, but it's deceptive (repeated)
It's a bluff
False reassurance, not meeting expectations (repeated)
It's never enough
Insufficient, never meeting the standard (repeated)
Never enough
Continued emphasis on insufficiency (repeated)
I should leave but I can't break free
Feeling trapped, unable to break away
Can't you see you've got a hold on me
Noticing the influence or control you have
Don't I have
Questioning if I possess what you desire (repeated)
Your kind of stuff
Similar qualities or attributes (repeated)
It's never enough
Despite efforts, it's not sufficient (repeated)
Never enough
Continued emphasis on insufficiency (repeated)
You say I'm alright
You claim I'm fine, but it's deceptive (repeated)
It's a bluff
False reassurance, not meeting expectations (repeated)
It's never enough
Insufficient, never meeting the standard (repeated)
Never enough
Continued emphasis on insufficiency (repeated)
Never enough
Reiteration of never being enough
Never enough
-Never enough
-Never enough
