Not Enough
Makari Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This isn't my body
At least not anymore
Or maybe I'm not sure
This feeling's strange
This isn't my body
At least not anymore
I've lost as much hair as I've lost sleep
And I know one day we'll all fall way too deep
It's not enough, it's not enough
You were all I had
Now you're not here so I must do this on my own
It's not enough, it's not enough
I still have your blood
Running through the arms that cannot reach you now
My head is a lake
I'm floating face down
I stay floating face down
It's not enough, it's not enough
You were all I had
Now you're not here so I must do this on my own
It's not enough, it's not enough
I still have your blood
Running through the arms that cannot reach you now
I'm drowning in the pools between my ears
Some days the trees and cars just don't seem real
Without you, is there really a me?
It's not enough, it's not enough
You were all I ever had
It's not enough, it's not enough
You were all I had
Now you're not here so I must do this on my own
It's not enough, it's not enough
I still have your blood
Running through the arms that cannot reach you now
I'm drowning in the pools between my ears
Some days the trees and cars just don't seem real
Without you, is there really a me?
The song "Not Enough" by Makari seems to be about the loss of a loved one and the feeling of being lost and alone in their absence. The lyrics "This feeling's strange, This isn't my body, At least not anymore, Or maybe I'm not sure" highlight the confusion that comes with grief, where one may feel detached from themselves and their surroundings. The line "I've lost as much hair as I've lost sleep, And I know one day we'll all fall way too deep" expresses the physical and emotional toll that grieving can take on a person.
The chorus "It's not enough, it's not enough, You were all I had, Now you're not here so I must do this on my own" suggests that the loss of the loved one has left the singer feeling incomplete and unable to move on without them. The line "I still have your blood, Running through the arms that cannot reach you now" could be interpreted as a metaphor for feeling connected to the lost loved one, even though they are no longer physically present.
The line "Some days the trees and cars just don't seem real, Without you, is there really a me?" shows the depth of the singer's grief, questioning not only their identity but also their perception of reality. Overall, the song conveys the pain and confusion that comes with losing someone close, and the struggle to find a sense of self and purpose in their absence.

This feeling's strange
I'm experiencing an unusual emotion
This isn't my body
I don't feel like myself
At least not anymore
I used to, but something has changed
Or maybe I'm not sure
I'm uncertain about what's going on
I've lost as much hair as I've lost sleep
I'm really stressed and it's affecting me physically
And I know one day we'll all fall way too deep
I'm worried about the future and what might happen
It's not enough, it's not enough
I don't have what I need to get through this
You were all I had
You were my only source of support
Now you're not here so I must do this on my own
I have to handle this by myself now
I still have your blood
You're still a part of me
Running through the arms that cannot reach you now
I can't be with you anymore
My head is a lake
My mind is filled with emotions
I'm floating face down
I feel like I'm drowning in my thoughts
I stay floating face down
I can't seem to break free from these feelings
I'm drowning in the pools between my ears
I'm overwhelmed by my own thoughts and emotions
Some days the trees and cars just don't seem real
I feel disconnected from the world around me
Without you, is there really a me?
I feel like I've lost a part of myself
You were all I ever had
You were the only one who understood me completely

Heard this song a while ago and been jamming to every song I can get my ears on since. Elegies is such a sad but strong EP. One of the most moving things I've found in a while. I can't stop listening. I definitely wish there were some vinyl copies out there.
