they say "move a mountain...and maybe then you'll be good enough." and when i finally move it after years of pushing they'll say, "no you silly bastard....a little to the left." and i begin to feel like no matter how hard i push it'll never be good enough for them, i'll never be good enough for them i'll never be enough for them because moving mountains isnt enough for someone like me.

they say "oh sweetheart..youre perfect the way you are." define perfect; because if im so perfect then why is she out there and im still very far from a finishing point because i will never be good enough- even at my highest, it wont be enough for you, will it? even if i work my ass off it'll never be enough to get where i want to be.

because i am never enough for anyone anymore.
