It Wasn't Enough Lyrics

It wasn't enough (3x)

I would try to believe in the things I cannot see,
But my faith is shaken now like it's never been before
When I call, you don't come
I don't know what I should do
Should I call, should I even count on you?

I've given all I can
It wasn't enough
To keep you in my hands
Should I give up?
Try to understand
Was it ever enough?
I don't understand

So here I am, once again with my back against the wall
Afraid to show you, afraid to tell you
That I don't know you like I did
I've never been so alone
I've never felt so insecure
And now I don't know where I'm going
In my life I'm not so sure

I've given all I can
It wasn't enough
To keep you in my hands
Should I give up?
Try to understand
Was it ever enough?
I don't understand.

Giving up tonight
I won't let go, won't let go of you
Giving up tonight
I wanna show, wanna show you
Giving up tonight
Am I giving up, giving up?

I've given all I can
It wasn't enough
To keep you in my hands
Should I give up?
Try to understand
Was it ever enough?
I don't understand

Everything you want from me
I've fought so hard for everything
Everything you want from me
I've tried so hard, can never be
Anything you want from me (3x)
I've given up

I think that this song is basically about how he used to have strong faith in God, but now his faith is starting to wear thin and he's having a hard time believing because God hasn't been answering his prayers.

i rekcon that this song is about the struggles hes been going thru with his Faith in God. Although I;m not sure whether its supposed to give the message whether he believes in God anymore or not...

You guys are right! I thought it was bout a girl or or somethin!!! I'm not very smart!

I love this song, I can relate to it so much. I think it is about how he is losing his Faith and he is afraid to admit it because it is like his safety net. Awesome song. GC ROCKS!

Yeah I think this song is basically saying how he trys so hard to keep faith in god yet nothing is really changing. And it's hard for him to believe when god doesn't answer his prayers.

Exactly. I feel the same way as him... kinda makes me depressed, this song.

I never really listened to this song properly until the other day as I wasn't that fond of TCOLAD. I tried to understand the meaning of the song and thought perhaps it was about them losing faith in their 'God' and this has just confirmed it for me.

Now knowing what it's about it's definatly one of my favourite songs, lyric-wise, on the album.
