Enough

In 'Enough,' Sleep Theory delves into the emotional turmoil of dealing with a toxic relationship. The song opens with a sense of frustration and helplessness, as the narrator struggles to communicate with someone who refuses to listen. This sets the stage for a powerful narrative about reaching the breaking point in a relationship where one party is consistently ignored and disrespected. The repeated line, 'I can't seem to get to you,' underscores the futility and exhaustion felt by the narrator.

The chorus of the song is a cathartic release of pent-up anger and frustration. The imagery of 'plastic bullets from imaginary guns' symbolizes the empty threats and meaningless words that have been hurled in the relationship. The narrator's decision to 'cut you off because I've had enough' signifies a moment of empowerment and self-preservation. This act of cutting ties is not just about ending a relationship but also about reclaiming one's voice and sanity. The repeated calls to 'kill the noise and listen' highlight the need for genuine communication and the rejection of superficial interactions.

As the song progresses, it becomes clear that the relationship has been marred by lies and deceit. The metaphor of 'holding your match to the masses, burning it down to the ashes' suggests that the toxic individual has caused widespread damage, affecting not just the narrator but others as well. The line 'every lie got back to me, another thread pulled from the tapestry' paints a vivid picture of the unraveling of trust and the exposure of the toxic person's true nature. The song's conclusion, with its repeated declarations of 'I've had enough,' serves as a powerful affirmation of the narrator's decision to break free and move on from the toxicity.
