Never Enough

I'll watch you fade away
It was inevitable I'll say
Put it down to wanting different things and just growing apart
But we both know that's not true
And I am still in love with you
But in this turbulence I lost all of my common sense

This love was accidental
Destructive, temperamental
And all the things you'd never tell I knew them all by myself

I saw the red flags, I painted them blue and
I saw desire ignite in you
And I tried, and I tried, and I tried again
But I was never enough for you darling

I'll watch us cease to be
Like a fable tragedy
So consumed with victory you lost your evergreen, baby
And your empire had to fall
You won the battle I won the war
And you took my faith and your fidelity
And you broke them so easily

I saw the red flags, I painted them blue and
I saw desire ignite in you
And I tried, and I tried, and I tried again
But I was never enough for you darling

I'll put away the photo frames
I'll rearrange my bedside again
With all the notes I wrote to you
That I will never send to you, my friend
And I won't ask myself why
And I'll cast you out of my life
But I was never enough for you darling
