I put on my make up then straightened my hair,
Couldn't eat my food, butterflies inside.
In a nervous state, choosing what to wear.
Should I just not go? Should I run and hide?
But I faced my fears and then gave my heart;
I was never warned that yours was elsewhere.
You carried it on, you let it all start,
And talking with me yet thinking of her.
I should have known then, you still loved the past -
She hurt you, left you, which I'd never do,
But she was better, we would never last.
Standing alone, not good enough for you.
I tried, you lied, I cried, nothing to say…
Except maybe I'll love again someday.
Not Good Enough by Groovy Angel
