Lyrics

Verse 1

I changed the way I talk

I changed the clothes I wear

I learned to read your silence

Like an answer hiding there

I tried to be your favorite

Tried to never make mistakes

But every time I gave more

There was something else to change

Pre-Chorus

I kept shrinking in the mirror

Trying to fit inside your view

Till I couldn't recognize

The person I was before you

Chorus

Was I never enough?

Or was enough never what you wanted?

I gave you every version

Of myself that I could become

And if I couldn't make you stay

That doesn't mean I failed

Maybe I was chasing love

That was never mine to hold

Verse 2

I counted every compliment

Like numbers on a screen

One day you called me beautiful

The next you barely looked at me

I kept waiting for the moment

When you'd finally understand

That I was standing right beside you

With my heart inside my hands

Bridge

I don't want to disappear

Just to make somebody stay

I don't want to call it love

If I have to lose myself that way

Final Chorus

I was always enough

Even when you couldn't see it

I don't need another person

To decide what I am worth

And if you couldn't make it work

That's not a flaw I have to hide

I was never not enough

I was just looking in the wrong eyes

Outro

Not enough for you

But enough to start again.
