It’s Not Enough

Matt Simons, Gordon Groothedde - 2016 / From 'Catch & Release'

 

I’m a liar

 

I don’t think about you the same way

You’re an actress

Act like everything’s ok

I’m a drifter

I’ve been drifting far enough to say

I’ll be leaving

I’ll be gone before the day

 

There’s still love here

The first love is the one that never dies

You’re still shining

You’ve got diamonds in your eyes

Cut right through me

Deep within my soul I’m paralyzed

I release you

You can be someone else’s prize

 

It’s not enough, It’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough

It’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, It’s not enough

For me

 

The darkness of the basement

My parents basement

Where we used to love

We’re so quiet

We can hear the footsteps up above

I feel your body, I can taste your breath inside my lungs

You’re like fire, you’re like fire on my tongue

 

It’s not enough, It’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough

It’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, It’s not enough

For me

 

I don’t know myself without you

Afraid the world might swallow me whole

Starting over

With no one here and no where else to go

No excuses

Honestly, there’s something we both know

 

It’s not enough, It’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough

It’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, It’s not enough

For me
