(Not) Enough
When you looked into my eyes for the first time
I felt like a deer in the headlights
In a moment all the things that have comprised
Every accomplishment and benchmark in my life
All fell flat, all came short
The bar is so much higher than it was before
And I don't know if I am capable
Of the love that I know that you'll be aching for
I'm not the man you think I am
I'm just a fraud inside his skin
How long before you start to see
I'm not enough and I can't compete?
With a cold sweat, I was terrified
But at the same time I've never felt so alive
My heart was full but so was my mind
'Cause I stockpiled lie after lie after lie
"You can't provide! You're not equipped!
You're not a man, you're just a kid!"
Is what I hear inside my head
The diagnosis of my own demons
I'm not the man you think I am
I'm just a fraud inside his skin
How long before you start to see
I'm not enough and I can't compete?
(I'm not enough and I can't compete)
(I'm not enough and I'll never be)
(I'm not enough and I can't compete)
(With who you think I oughta be)
(I'm not enough and I can't compete)
(I'm not enough and I'll never be)
(I'm not enough and I can't compete)
(With who you think I oughta be)
I'm not enough and I can't compete!
I'm not enough and I'll never be!
I'm not enough and I can't compete!
With who you think I oughta be!
I'm not enough, I'm not enough! (I'm not the man you think I am)
(I'm just a fraud inside his skin)
I'm not the man you think I am
I'm just a fraud inside his skin
How long before you start to see
I'm not enough and I can't compete?
I'm not enough!
I felt like a deer in the headlights
In a moment all the things that have comprised
Every accomplishment and benchmark in my life
All fell flat, all came short
The bar is so much higher than it was before
And I don't know if I am capable
Of the love that I know that you'll be aching for
I'm not the man you think I am
I'm just a fraud inside his skin
How long before you start to see
I'm not enough and I can't compete?
With a cold sweat, I was terrified
But at the same time I've never felt so alive
My heart was full but so was my mind
'Cause I stockpiled lie after lie after lie
"You can't provide! You're not equipped!
You're not a man, you're just a kid!"
Is what I hear inside my head
The diagnosis of my own demons
I'm not the man you think I am
I'm just a fraud inside his skin
How long before you start to see
I'm not enough and I can't compete?
(I'm not enough and I can't compete)
(I'm not enough and I'll never be)
(I'm not enough and I can't compete)
(With who you think I oughta be)
(I'm not enough and I can't compete)
(I'm not enough and I'll never be)
(I'm not enough and I can't compete)
(With who you think I oughta be)
I'm not enough and I can't compete!
I'm not enough and I'll never be!
I'm not enough and I can't compete!
With who you think I oughta be!
I'm not enough, I'm not enough! (I'm not the man you think I am)
(I'm just a fraud inside his skin)
I'm not the man you think I am
I'm just a fraud inside his skin
How long before you start to see
I'm not enough and I can't compete?
I'm not enough!
