I'll Never Be Good Enough
February 27, 2012
I’ll never be good enough
I’m inferior and I know it.
In many people’s eyes I’m nothing,
But a paper bag in the wind.
I’m my father’s son
I’m a failure,
I’m the one thing in this world
I strive not to be.
It makes her “cry”
Tears of an actress
And tears of pain
Mix together to make
A greater pain
As I live on my knees
I live on my knees
Begging her please
To let me live,
But vile conception
And an evil stare
Show me that I’m alone.
Alone
Alone where you left me
Alone on my own
In the house where you left me
