Had Enough
Lower Than Atlantis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hate everyone that I meet
But I'm getting better
Think before I speak because I
I know I've got a temper
(I know I've got a temper)
Screws are shaking loose
I'm bent and buckled
My teeth are clenched

Think I've blown a fuse
There's blood on my knuckles
The smile on my face is fake
And the vein on my head suggests you get running

I've had enough, had enough
Had enough, had enough yeah
'Cause I've had enough
I think I'm reaching the limit
You should keep your distance
'Cause I've had enough

Take a deep breath and count to three
And then I'll be behavin'
I feel like people just don't get me
Maybe I'm crazy

Think I've blown a fuse
There's blood on my knuckles
The smile on my face is fake
And the vein on my head suggests you get running

I've had enough, had enough
Had enough, had enough yeah
'Cause I've had enough
I think I'm reaching the limit
You should keep your distance
'Cause I've had enough

Well I guess it could be me
Quite possibly
I might be scared or insecure
I have been here before, the blame ain't yours
But the vein on my head suggests you get running
'Cause I've had enough
'Cause I've had enough

I think I'm reaching the limit
You should keep your distance
'Cause I've had enough

Hey now, don't you know
I said hey now, don't you know, know
'Cause I've had enough
Hey now, don't you know




I said hey now, don't you know, know
'Cause I've had enough

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lower Than Atlantis's song "Had Enough" are about feeling overwhelmed and frustrated with other people. The singer hates everyone they meet and admits to having a bad temper, but is trying to control themselves. They acknowledge feeling like they're going over the edge, as if they've blown a fuse or are about to burst. The fake smile they wear is a cover for their anger and resentment towards others. Although they've had enough of dealing with difficult people, they recognize that the problem may also be within themselves. They may be scared or insecure, and they've been in this situation before. Ultimately, the singer is warning others to keep their distance, because they've reached their limit.


The lines "Screws are shaking loose / I'm bent and buckled / My teeth are clenched" suggest the singer's emotional and mental state is becoming unstable, and they're struggling to contain their feelings. The repetition of "had enough" in the chorus emphasizes their feelings of being overwhelmed and exasperated. The line "the vein on my head suggests you get running" is a violent image that highlights the danger the singer poses to others; they're about to lose control and lash out. However, the song also acknowledges that the problem may not be entirely other people's fault, and the singer may need to take responsibility for their actions.


Overall, "Had Enough" is a song that expresses frustration with dealing with difficult people and one's own limitations in coping with them. The lyrics are relatable to anyone who has felt overwhelmed or pushed to their breaking point.

0:45 - 0:50 that part, though it's small, that drum kit editing is just so on point, that raise in gain on that cymbal with that reverb, man I'm buying this song right now

I love discovering bands. You're bound to be surprised every once in a while, sometimes in a really good way. These guys surprised the hell out of me. I was looking for Breaking Benjamin and I stumbled across these guys.
