Musically, this song is inspired by "Creep" by Radiohead and "Free Fallin'" by Tom Petty.
It's also a song I've slowly worked on over the past year every time I've felt bad about myself. It's a lament that I'm too hard on myself about everything, or that I always feel the need to be on guard for something bad to happen.

Lyrics:
I'm no stranger to believing that it's never good enough
And I just gotta say
It's been way too much
The way I'm feeling now

I'm familiar with the notion that I'm always in the wrong
I can't do what I expect from myself all the time
And my standards fly like Icarus and the sun can't be prolonged
But then how much time do I have 'til I cross that line?

Don't get close or you'll see
Something's always wrong with me
It's always me
So leave me be
And let me scream

I'm a beast of burden carrying much more than I ought to
Like a mule I toil 'til I'm tired and don't rest well
I can't help but feel I have nerve and therefore deserve this loop
I worry I'll break any time and bring myself hell

Oh something's always wrong with me
It's always me
So leave me be
And let me scream

I'm a beast of burden carrying much more than I ought to
And I'm just gonna stay
Doomed to slave away

'Cause something's always wrong with me
It's always me
So leave me be
And let me scream

I'm no stranger to believing that it's never good enough
And I just gotta say
It's been way too much
