Never Enough
Mark Logan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I swear it's the last you'll hear me complain about it
I ain't the same without you now
Somehow I can't eliminate these problems
I need to taste your toxins, oh
You're so bad, but I love it, it's no good for me
I wish you could understand who you could be
I keep on waiting for you to wake up
I keep sacrificing, it's never enough
Two times I already called, but you're lucky I called a third
Call it whatever you want, but it's pretty much fate I'm sure
You end up back in my arms, and I end up taking the words
You give me right to my heart, then we're back to square one and it works
'Cause you're poisonous, I need a hit
I feel your kiss, I breathe it in
I can't explain, how I feel like this
My rationale, I'm leaving it
The cycle continues, it's been more than once
I keep sacrificing, it's never enough
I swear it's the last you'll hear me complain about it
I ain't the same without you now
Somehow I can't eliminate these problems
I need to taste your toxins, oh
You're so bad, but I love it, it's no good for me
I wish you could understand who you could be
I keep on waiting for you to wake up
I keep sacrificing, it's never enough
You're making it hard to move on, but I'm lucky I built up the nerve
My sacrifices aren't done, I've gotta give you up first
Most difficult of them all, difference is that this is a purge
Turns out that cutting you off is the only way that I'll be cured
'Cause you're venomous, I'm weakening
I feel your kiss, it's evilness
I know how I have to deal with this
My rationale, I'm keepin' it
Despite what we've been through, the truth has to come
All my sacrifices are never enough
I swear it's the last you'll hear me complain about it
I ain't the same without you now
Somehow I can't eliminate these problems
I need to taste your toxins, oh
You're so bad, but I love it, it's no good for me
I wish you could understand who you could be




I keep on waiting for you to wake up
I keep sacrificing, it's never enough
