Not Enough
The mirror, it's swaying;
Reflection is wavering
Can't stay still,
I want to get away!
Just keep looking through my eyes--
You're a beauty in disguise.
Why are you people looking through glassy eyes at the mirror,
Gazing at your reflections, searching for imperfections?
Your eyes, they're foggy; your mind, not clear...
Always comparing and caring what another thinks of you—
Why are you looking at yourself like a photograph on the wall?
Comparing faces to others than your own?
Not good enough, not good enough, not good enough—
Why am I not good enough?
Ask yourself these questions, ignore what's inside.
Never think with your own mind,
You're just another clone;
Are you truly different or are you just another's shadow?
Why be the same?
Why are you looking at yourself like a photograph on the wall,
Comparing faces to others than your own?
Not good enough, not good enough, not good enough—
Why am I not good enough?
Looking with glassy eyes...
Why are you looking at yourself like a photograph on the wall?
Comparing faces to others than your own?
Not good enough, not good enough, not good enough—
Why am I not good enough?
Your mind's simply unclear...
All you see are slurred visions...
Why are you looking at yourself like a photograph on the wall?
Comparing faces to others than your own?
Not good enough, not good enough, not good enough—
Why am I not good enough?
Why are you not good enough?
Why believe all others' thoughts, not your own voice?
Why am I not good enough?
Not good enough
Not good enough
Not good enough...

Think about it: Why do people like to conform so much and think that they're "not good enough"?
