Even My Best Won't Be Good Enough - Rosie Thomas

I’m gonna try

I’m gonna try hard

I’ll try not to let you down

I’ll try not to break your heart

I’m gonna give

I’ll give this my best shot

Pray that God fills you in

All the ways that I cannot

But I’m gonna feel

I’m just too flawed

But I’m gonna feel

I’ve dropped the bomb

I’m gonna give

Give you my all

But even my past

Even my past

Won’t be good enough

I’m gonna teach

Teach you how to be yourself

In a world that tries with all its might

To tempt us to be someone else

I’m gonna hope

It comes as no surprise

That dreams will sometimes let you down

And love requires compromise

But I’m gonna feel

I’m just too flawed

I’m gonna feel

I’ve dropped the bomb

I’m gonna give

Give you my all

But even my best

Even my best

Won’t be good enough

I’m gonna wonder

What you really think about

Too afraid of telling me

Too ashamed to let it out
