Now I am free

You set me up
Another day, another failure
When all I wanted was to make you proud
It never mattered
That I did my best for you
It never mattered since I was not enough

You looked at me through selfish eyes and
Cut me down
You cut me down

Why? (tell me why)
Why was I never enough?
Blind, (so blind)
I was blind all the time
Lie, what a terrible lie, that you had
Me believing
You had me believe

But now I know
It was just you

You labeled me a disappointment
Even though I always gave my all
My head's cleared and now the truth is upon us
And all along, I was better than you

You only brought me down
Now life is better, better without you

Why? Tell me why)
Why was I never enough?
Blind, (so blind)
I was blind all the time
Lie, what a terrible lie, that you had
Me believing
You had me believe

You brought me down
I'll overcome
You brought me down
I'll overcome
And show the world a new me
'Cause all I need is inside me

Why? (tell me why)
Why was I never enough?
Blind, (so blind)
I was blind all the time
Lie, what a terrible lie, that you had
Me believing
You had me believe
