never been in a relationship but the line “I was good just wasn’t good enough” is so beautiful and relatable. thank you Maisie for writing such a powerful song that has put everyone in their feels.
I think the beautiful thing about that line is that it can apply to lots of situations, not just romantic relationships, and can be relatable to everyone :)
It actually may sound weird as some views it but av never been in a relationship (am 22yrs of age ) but this piece makes me catch my feels and being me
"Thought that I was the way home, but I was an obstacle to move." This lyric stands out so much for me, it hits too hard, Maisie. I'm crying in the corner
I had not heard of Maisie until Ed Sheeran concert in Dublin. I certainly went for Ed, but I definitely went home with Maisie 🙂 . Album on vinyl was ordered the very next day.
"'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win" is such a hard-hitting line. It hurts to try so hard to make something work and it still falls through.
[Verse 1] I guess I took it for granted You'd bury me someday All the big plans that I planted While you planned your own escape Never thought I was the greatest But I was great for you Just assumed I was your favorite With no one else to choose [Pre-Chorus] I try to kiss your face, you turn away No one ever taught me the protocol What do you do when the good guys change their mind? [Chorus] 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win But I'll sit in your favorite dress and ask you where you've been Peoplе don't leave peoplе if they really are in love I was good, just wasn't good enough I was good, just wasn't good enough [Verse 2] There were four eyes in the garden Two cried but two looked down Now you're asking for a pardon 'Cause I'm a good time pound for pound And you say this was a hard one But lately you felt stuck And I thought I was first place But I was runner-up [Pre-Chorus] I try to kiss your face, you turn away No one ever taught me the protocol What do you do when the good guys change their mind? [Chorus] 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win But I'll sit in your favorite dress and ask you where you've been People don't leave people if they really are in love I was good, just wasn't good enough I was good, just wasn't good enough [Bridge] I never said I was perfect Just thought I was perfect for you But all that was worthless 'Cause if I couldn't be one, I wouldn't ever be two Thought I was the way home, but I was an obstacle to move I never said I was perfect Like you [Chorus] 'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win But I'll sit in your favorite dress and wonder how you've been And did you ever mean it when you said you were in love? I was good, just wasn't good enough I was good, just wasn't good enough [Outro] I was good, just wasn't good enough
listening to this suddenly makes that deep hollow pit in my heart ache. i drown in the past feelings and relive the aghastly days. but i keep coming back in pain there is pleasure, in pleasure there is pain, i realize that.
My husband, a nice guy who changed his mind, just told me last night that our marriage is done. Out of the blue and without a warning. And I've never cried hard in my life until I actually listened to lyrics of this song(after playing it on repeat for a month now). I'm pretty devastated at the thought that I'm about to lose my bestfriend and the man I dearly love. I tried my best to be the best wife I can be, but I guess I was good, just wan't good enough.
It feels good to see you growing from the beginning..... I am following you from a long time and "Stay young" is still my favourite.... Keep growing ❤️
"No one ever taught me the protocol." Maisie, I cried listening to this in the car driving down the highway to work the other day. Your songwriting has always been so honest and relatable. Love that about the music you make. I am always excited to listen to your songs!
Wow. I just found this a few minutes ago. It hit me pretty hard in the gut. I love my wife of 24 years with all my heart, but I don't think I've ever told her "she's good enough," not that I have too, but that I should have. Thank you.
I remember back in March when I met Maisie in a small cafe in Denver before her concert, I remember the moment I looked into her eyes in person and somehow that memory makes this video hit different. I think we seem to put amazing people like her on a sort of pedestal and forget that their human and they hurt just as much as we do they just know how to express it in a much different way. I would love this song even if I hadn’t met her but that experience really made me feel this song even deeper. I’m not trying to rub it in anyone’s face that I met her I just want everyone to always remember there is a real person behind every one of her songs and to never take it for granted that she shares songs like these with us. Thank you Maisie for the song and that moment in that cafe, I’ll always love both of them.
Clear the schedule because we are crying for the entire day here. This song is absolutely beautiful. I can sense your sincerity from a million miles away and I feel not just for my loss but for yours. Thank you for opening your heart to us Maisie
"cause I used to think that if i tried my best i'd always win" I felt that. When you haven't experience any reward in life for your hardwork and thinking of just giving up.
Maisie is so much more than just that fun girlie touring with Ed Sheeran. Her songwriting is beyond moving and so poetic. I love the way she portrays the feminine experience in her songs. What an energetic, versatile artist that found her style at such a young age and made it without being a nepotism baby. I’m very proud of you Maisie.💕
Absolutely fantastic. What makes a song great is when a vast majority of people can relate and feel the song. I think you've certainly cracked it there Maisie. You're a shining star in that needs to be recognized a whole lot more, xo.
This song is breathtakingly beautiful. The line that stood out to me is “i was good but not good enough” . It’s so beautiful. The whole song is amazing, but there’s something about this line thats so nostalgic for me! Congrats Maisie!
Bonjour Maisie merci pour cette très belle chanson nous vous vus au stade de France avant le concert d’Ed et nous avons vraiment beaucoup aimés 🥰 ❤️❤️❤️
Almost midnight on Friday 17th of November 2023. This song is my everything. It explains my entire life for the past few weeks. I don't know why, but it does. Am waiting for the day my mental health is good enough to not cry about the smallest things. There's only so much more of this I can take. For those in a similar situation as mine, you'll get better, I can assure it.
"I Was good just wasn't good enough" that line really touched my heart. I think that even being enough there are people who do not know how to value it. Thank you for this beautiful song Maisie and for this mv!!. You are amazing
Every single one of Maisie's songs is so relatable and personal. Each song tells a story and has a message. I love your music so much, Maisie. I experience so many different emotions while listening to your albums. Each one is a masterpiece. Keep being your beautiful self. ❤🖤❤
My boyfriend left me a week ago. Thought he is the one. I can relate so much to every single line of this song. Thanks that you wrote it. It just fits. It sounds like it discribes my current situation.
I felt this on such a personal level, it’s like she is a close friend sharing her experience and you are relating to it because you’ve been there, you don’t feel the same feelings but you felt the same once 💔
this brings me back to her older songs! I think we often forget that she and other big artist are still people and that, despite the "fame" they have a history that we tend to forget. I'm so glad to be able to listen to her songs and so proud of how much she has grown and evolved and thrived these past years :,)
I never cry listening to music, but I got tears falling from my eyes, listening to this, this is just wonderful from the lyrics to the video, it's just amazing!
This song is going to have to be my favourite from Maisie EVER! The depth and vulnerable built-up in the track yet the simplicity of the music video is so powerful beyond words. Maisie, you always release such impeccable work, this song just adds to even more reasons as to why your music is so special to so many. Favourite lyrics are the following (upon release day listening) : - 'just assumed I was your favourite, with no one else to choose'. - 'I try to kiss your face, you turn away, no one ever taught me the protocol'. - 'what do you do when the good guys change their mind'. - 'people don't leave people if they really are in love' (the voice break too ahhhh). - 'I was good, just wasn't good enough'. Congrats on yet another soulful, heart-wrenching ballad, can't wait to hear/see what's up next! All my heart and love ^_^ 💛
I was listening to music last night and writing my thoughts and feelings about a recent relationship. Every word in this song is everything I am going through. I thought I was doing everything right(working and caring for him and our kids) but I was an option and I always waited for him going he would take me out, but no matter how much I loved him and care for everything he was and our family… I was not good enough to be his wife.
She explained everything i was feeling when my ex broke it off for gud in Jan. I cried so much but mostly i questioned my worth n everything i stood for as a person.. the lyrics in this song maan..
Saved me in a coma in 2019 and still amazing today! Gutted I didn't make it to see you in 2019 after my accident but one day I will come and see you! Thank you Maisie xx
never been in a relationship but the line “I was good just wasn’t good enough” is so beautiful and relatable. thank you Maisie for writing such a powerful song that has put everyone in their feels.
I think the beautiful thing about that line is that it can apply to lots of situations, not just romantic relationships, and can be relatable to everyone :)
@@xfreyawatson yes exactly!
well you have been in plenty of relationships because that is life. but if you meant romantic relationship, then no, you cant relate to that line.
You just put the sentence that i was not able to put in words in a sentence thank you and what you said was 100% true!
It actually may sound weird as some views it but av never been in a relationship (am 22yrs of age ) but this piece makes me catch my feels and being me
"Thought that I was the way home, but I was an obstacle to move." This lyric stands out so much for me, it hits too hard, Maisie. I'm crying in the corner
maisie peters is criminally underrated she's so talented and her voice is one of a kind
I had not heard of Maisie until Ed Sheeran concert in Dublin. I certainly went for Ed, but I definitely went home with Maisie 🙂 . Album on vinyl was ordered the very next day.
I heard Maisie to go to his concert in Glasgow and yes, surely went he with Maisie hahahah but yes, I love him ❤️
I was exactly the same! Loved her set in Dublin and now I can’t stop listening!!
Same I've been a fan since they came to Paris !
I discovered Maisie through Tessa Violet... who I discovered through Dodie. 😉
@@anonglakmoonwicha2726 and dodie from John cozart!
I really like her unique voice and the delicate words.
She’s special.
agreed!
"'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win" is such a hard-hitting line. It hurts to try so hard to make something work and it still falls through.
[Verse 1]
I guess I took it for granted
You'd bury me someday
All the big plans that I planted
While you planned your own escape
Never thought I was the greatest
But I was great for you
Just assumed I was your favorite
With no one else to choose
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to kiss your face, you turn away
No one ever taught me the protocol
What do you do when the good guys change their mind?
[Chorus]
'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
But I'll sit in your favorite dress and ask you where you've been
Peoplе don't leave peoplе if they really are in love
I was good, just wasn't good enough
I was good, just wasn't good enough
[Verse 2]
There were four eyes in the garden
Two cried but two looked down
Now you're asking for a pardon
'Cause I'm a good time pound for pound
And you say this was a hard one
But lately you felt stuck
And I thought I was first place
But I was runner-up
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to kiss your face, you turn away
No one ever taught me the protocol
What do you do when the good guys change their mind?
[Chorus]
'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
But I'll sit in your favorite dress and ask you where you've been
People don't leave people if they really are in love
I was good, just wasn't good enough
I was good, just wasn't good enough
[Bridge]
I never said I was perfect
Just thought I was perfect for you
But all that was worthless
'Cause if I couldn't be one, I wouldn't ever be two
Thought I was the way home, but I was an obstacle to move
I never said I was perfect
Like you
[Chorus]
'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
But I'll sit in your favorite dress and wonder how you've been
And did you ever mean it when you said you were in love?
I was good, just wasn't good enough
I was good, just wasn't good enough
[Outro]
I was good, just wasn't good enough
Thank You So Much💜
Thanks Brent
❤
listening to this suddenly makes that deep hollow pit in my heart ache.
i drown in the past feelings and relive the aghastly days.
but i keep coming back
in pain there is pleasure, in pleasure there is pain, i realize that.
You are good enough. Anyone reading this. You're good enough. Maybe not for others but that's their problem. Not yours. Love yourself.
My husband, a nice guy who changed his mind, just told me last night that our marriage is done. Out of the blue and without a warning.

I'm so sorry you're experiencing this level of heatbreak💔💓💓💓
😢 so sorry to hear that, i believe that you are the best wife in this world.
Err like wow - in a bad way… 😢
im so sorry hun i hope you will be better
* virtual hug *
As hard as this is, your not alone.❤️
It feels good to see you growing from the beginning..... I am following you from a long time and "Stay young" is still my favourite.... Keep growing ❤️
Stay Young kept me sane through lockdown.
It's mine fav too
same!
SAME SAAAAME!
I discovered her through spotalike using julia michaels songs hahaha i never regretted listening to her. Her EP made me root for her
Never has a song hit so close to home with such perfect timing. Maisie you are amazing
same same
It was the perfect idea for us to all be able to hear it together, I hate getting spoilers from people who get it first.
"This is me tryin" × "tolerate it" (Maisie Peters version) = it hits hard
Not every female artist needs to be compared to Taylor Swift…
@@melissaharkins22 In this case, Maisie is actually a huge Swiftie, so the comparison with 2 Taylor songs makes sense.
Please stooooop, i love Taylor But stop comparing Maisie to her. They are very different
Maisie, I didn’t need yet another thing to make me cry today 😭😭😭
Uncomfortably relatable, hauntingly beautiful ♡
"I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win.
But I sit in your favourite dress and ask you where you've been."
Exceptional writing. ✍
Yep. Fantastic line.
This is a song that questions the meaning of existence. And bring a ray of light into the darkness.
"people don't leave people if they really are in love" preach 👏👏👏👏
"No one ever taught me the protocol." Maisie, I cried listening to this in the car driving down the highway to work the other day. Your songwriting has always been so honest and relatable. Love that about the music you make. I am always excited to listen to your songs!
@oiuet souiu "ho"?????
Maisie Peters is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for her one day.
Yesss manifesting this for you! 💖💖💖
ooh yess that'd be so cool!! you can do it!
Yes, yes! 💕💕
@@deonnemusic thank you 🙏🏼 drop a sub and be apart of the journey!
@@emdeegetit thank you 🙏🏼 drop a sub and be apart of the journey!
I still can't get over this song. Goosebumps.
Wow. I just found this a few minutes ago. It hit me pretty hard in the gut. I love my wife of 24 years with all my heart, but I don't think I've ever told her "she's good enough," not that I have too, but that I should have. Thank you.

Had not heard of this young lady before. She has an angelic voice and sings some brilliant songs.
This song brings me back to “Dressed To Nice For A Jacket” and I LOVE IT
Absolutely fantastic. What makes a song great is when a vast majority of people can relate and feel the song. I think you've certainly cracked it there Maisie. You're a shining star in that needs to be recognized a whole lot more, xo.

everything is so beautiful
A voice that leaves its mark on the heart. Amazing!
I don't often comment on youtube, but Maisie I think this is one of your greatest songs. I rarely feel anything lately but this moved me.
this song feels like a warm hug that helps you to heal
Not just a beautiful voice, Maisie is absolutely gorgeous!, her songs really mean something, she should be a huge star!

This song is way too good and too emotional and sad and God Maisie you are so talented ! 😭🤍
I here ya girl! The judge told me the same exact thing. I'll just have to try harder to hide the bodies next time.
Girl. You're worth anything. Never ever doubt yourself.
Baby ive been here before, ive lived this room and walked this floor.... Hallelujah
My boyfriend left me a week ago. Thought he is the one. I can relate so much to every single line of this song. Thanks that you wrote it. It just fits. It sounds like it discribes my current situation.
I couldn't express myself you helped me put my thoughts into words
That speaks to me on so many levels
I felt this on such a personal level, it’s like she is a close friend sharing her experience and you are relating to it because you’ve been there, you don’t feel the same feelings but you felt the same once 💔

I'm so glad to be able to listen to her songs and so proud of how much she has grown and evolved and thrived these past years :,)
I wish I could bottle the feeling of hearing this song for the first time. Melancholic magnificence.
She should release 'anyway', officially, it's one of her best songs
I keep coming back to this, just to cry even though I don't want to. what have you done to me Maisie, I'm an emotional wreck!
I know you will shine brighter as the star afar.
I love absolutely love this song so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're such a beautiful songwriter! Love you

Such a beautiful song, this one hits differently. Lyrical genius ❤️
I was listening to music last night and writing my thoughts and feelings about a recent relationship. Every word in this song is everything I am going through. I thought I was doing everything right(working and caring for him and our kids) but I was an option and I always waited for him going he would take me out, but no matter how much I loved him and care for everything he was and our family… I was not good enough to be his wife.
Damn I just keep coming back to this song every day. Something really special about it.
I love Maisie's badass songs but I've very much missed a good old sad song for a while. ❤️❤️❤️
I don’t think my heart is going to recover from this 😭❤️
what challenges you changes you, love never dies.
Kongratulations maisie porfec song 😘💜 belive
so strong omg love it
Is this her best song? I reckon so, shows her voice and talent with a simple accompaniment and quiet parts to let her voice shine.
She explained everything i was feeling when my ex broke it off for gud in Jan. I cried so much but mostly i questioned my worth n everything i stood for as a person.. the lyrics in this song maan..
it's the way she looks up, straight into your eyes to say 'I never said I was perfect, just thought I was perfect for you'
Saved me in a coma in 2019 and still amazing today! Gutted I didn't make it to see you in 2019 after my accident but one day I will come and see you! Thank you Maisie xx
She is the moment.
Wow right in the feels, bestie. You're talent to break me with flawless lyrics never ceases to amaze me. This is a masterpiece and I stand by that.
Now, I'm crying. Hope you're happy. Wonderful song, amazing video.
this song honestly has just been on repeat for me since it came out
She has the best singing voice ever! And writes the best songs ever
your voice and your beauty is so unique
just can sigh to this beautiful masterpiece
Already on repeat thank you Maisie ❤️😭
this followed by blonde on the single is an ICONIC transition omg!
