Lyrics
Just not good enough
Feeling inadequate or not meeting expectations
Almost there
Close to achieving something, but not quite there
But not where I wish to be
Not satisfied with current progress or position
Tough and just too much aware
Strongly aware of difficulties or challenges
To those things
Reflecting on past actions or accomplishments
Things that I've already done
Regret for the absence of people from the past
People who were - now they're gone
Longing for past connections or relationships
Why can't I just be
Wishing for an easier or different existence
Why can't I just be
Repetition emphasizing desire for change
Can't be myself
Struggling to be genuine or authentic
Now alone again
Emphasizing the feeling of loneliness
Not that it always had been this way
Acknowledging a different past situation
Now I'm completely awake
Realization or awareness of current circumstances
And - don't know if I can go back
Uncertainty about returning to a previous state
To where I was
Reluctance to return to a previous state of being
Never too close so I won't hurt
Maintaining distance to prevent causing harm
Not at this place that I just hate
Displeasure or discomfort with the current situation
Keeping this truth to myself
Keeping personal truth or feelings hidden
Why can't I just be
Reiterating the desire for change or authenticity
Why can't I just be
Emphasizing the struggle to be oneself
Can't be myself
Continued difficulty in expressing true identity
Can't be myself
Repetition emphasizing the struggle for authenticity
Why can't I just be
Questioning the inability to be genuine
Why can't I just be?
Expressing frustration or confusion about identity
Can't be myself
Continued struggle with being authentic
Down on the ground
Feeling defeated or low
Down on the ground
Emphasizing a low point or feeling down
Am I too proud
Questioning if pride is a barrier to authenticity
Am I too proud
Reflecting on the role of pride in self-expression
Why can't I just be
Reiteration of the desire for a genuine self
Why can't I just be
Continued frustration or questioning of authenticity
Can't be myself
Struggling to genuinely express oneself
Can't be myself
Reiteration of the struggle to be authentic
Why can't I be myself
Expressing a strong desire to be true to oneself
Why can't I be myself
Continued frustration or questioning of authenticity
