🎭 THE SONG:
An exploration of the weight of unmet expectations, the exhaustion of trying to be someone you're not, and the quiet despair of feeling like a disappointment. This is about the gap between who we are and who others hoped we'd be.

This isn't about blame. It's about pain.

Parental expectations and disappointment
Chronic effort without recognition
Self-worth tied to external validation
The exhaustion of perfectionism
Isolation in plain sight
Accepting you can't be someone else's ideal

🌱 FOR LISTENERS:
If this resonates with you, you're not alone. Many people carry the weight of feeling like they're not "enough" for the people who matter most.

You are not the "wrong ending." You're a different story than they expected—and that's allowed.

Your worth isn't measured by meeting someone else's blueprint.

💬 TO THE LISTENER:
If you've felt this way—the exhaustion of never being enough, the quiet despair of trying so hard and still falling short—leave a comment. Sometimes just saying "me too" helps someone else feel less alone.

Art doesn't fix pain, but it can hold it long enough to examine it.

You're not broken. You're human.
