Not Good Enough

I'm at the base of it now, I'm in the shadow I don't know if I can face it The clouds, they shroud the top Right near the summit is the place they say you'll make it And I don't think I can live with myself, if I don't try Instead of breaking down, I'd rather die And all I can do is act it out Wake up every morning with my head full of doubt That I may never be good enough I may never be good enough I may never be good enough (No, no, no, no, no, no, no) I may never be good enough (No, no, no, no, no, oh) Stop, work it out, let the rains of inspiration stop this idea drought And fill my head with lots of lyrical wonder And between you and me these haven't all be written sober And you say you can't believe it that I haven't made it The Piano Man's crowd felt the same And in this game of life, and what you wanna do, there's only one person to blame I may never be good enough I may never be good enough I may never be good enough (No, no, no, no, no, no, no) I may never be good enough (No, no, no, no, no, oh) Could you give me a minute, close your eyes Picture a place where you feel good inside If I did the same as you I'd be in the middle of the ocean Not because I like it 'cos I like the smooth motion Of the waves on my boat, back and forth as I float With no knowledge of date or time, so take note When I'm out here society can't hurt me There's no pressure on my head to not be lonely Instead I'd be looking at pretty girls and thinking what could have been Would it all been so bad if I just let them in 'Cos like they say, one is the loneliest number So I need one more to make my world stronger I may NEVER be good enough! I may never be good enough I may never be good enough I may never be good enough
