the words you say are so mean
the way they cut-cut
and the way they hurt me
as if i am never good enough for you, for you
something in the way
the way you walk and the way you talk
well i’m sorry that you, you, you feel sorry for me
and i’m sorry to say it

why can’t you be there?
why can’t you even care?
why can’t life be fair?
why am i never good enough?

you set me up to fall down
to hit the ground running
while all the time coming
was the biggest fall of all
well i lost control seemed to have lost my soul
you tried to away my fantasy
rock and roll was the olny goal
the thing that meant the most to me
can’t you see that’s all i’ll ever be?

why can’t you be there?
why can’t you even care?
why can’t life be fair?
why am i never good enough?
enough, enough

i’m never good enough
i’m never good enough
i’m never good enough
why?
the words you say are just so mean
choking my self esteem
i guess i will never be good enough for you

why can’t you be there?
why can’t you even care?
why can’t life be fair?
why am i never good enough?

why can’t you be there?
why can’t you even care?
why can’t life be fair?
i never good enough
