So here's the whole thing.
See,
See,
You don’t see
The Dark brings fear
But the night is light to me
Know,
Know
You can’t know
What goes on in my head
Though there’s not much to show..
Fight,
Fight,
I never learned how to fight
It wasn’t given to me to do,
It was mine to stand and hold on tight
Fall,
Fall,
And I don’t know how to fall
How to close my eyes and hold my breath
And pretend, no, know, that nothing’s wrong at all...
Things get done.
That’s just how it goes.
You have your highs, you have your lows
You deal.
You survive.
It is the strength you have as a human…. And it is not enough.
Never enough.
You are not enough.
A truth. Something that resounds strongly in your head.
You are not enough.
It hurts, doesn’t it?
I know, I know it does… You are not enough.
Enough for what?
Enough to live. Enough to survive maybe but you will always break.
Enough for a day, but that’s all it would take.
There is no way that you can stand.
You are like a sinking land.
There is no place for you to thrive.
And as you are, you know you’re not quite alive…
It’s not my problem.
It never was.
It is yours.
You are not enough.
Pain,
I know what that one feels like.
Inadequacy.
Worthlessness…
You are not enough;
It is the truth.
But it is out of context.
Standing alone, you feel the burden of knowing that the damage you take, and the damage you do, rests fully upon your shoulders.
The weight of the world.
Your world.
You can’t hold it; who the hell do you think you are to even try?
How dare you?
You pitiful creature…
Is that what you hear?
I have.
Not like that. Not always so much melodrama.
But that is there.
The pain.
The sentiment behind it.
The knowing, deep inside, how little you are…
That feeling when you look up at the clouds and space and think of all the millions of things that surround you and are overtaking your life and suddenly…
Give up.
It is the only answer.
Why do you even try?
A truth, again.
You are not enough.
Why do you keep trying.
It is the truths that condemn.
It is the truths that we end up learning to deny.
This is the way it gets
Twisted in our heads it gets
Changed around, mangled it gets
Turned around so we learn to
Name the truth a lie and call the lies our foundation we get
Built up on everything that isn’t real.
It’s time for a change.
Guess what?
You are not enough.
Why do you keep trying?
Give up.
Let it fall where it may.
You can’t hold it up.
So.
Stop.
