Inadequate

What's wrong with me?
I don't feel down
I still laugh all the time
There's hardly a frown

But deep down inside
I feel so numb
I'm not good enough
What have I become?

Inadequacy
That's what I feel
Like all that I do
Is so surreal

Family, friendship,
Work, and school
It's never enough
I feel like a fool

It's like I try
And I come so near
But then I slip
And my dreams disappear

I can't try any harder
I've done all I can do
When will it count?
When will I break through?
