Second Best

I fell in love with you one day
I lingered on every word that you did say

You told me you'd love me forever, as much as you could
But now I feel as if you don't love me as much as you should

Times have changed since my love profession
Your love's rearranged, this is my confession

I've taken backseat to everything you do
I'm always second best this is true

Something doesn't belong and that something is me
But then again love is never free

I'm all screwed up now Feeling jaded
My loves starting to die In fact part of it's already faded

I know you don't deserve that
But I don't deserve this
Maybe we should hold hands
Maybe we should kiss

Then I'd know if this love was for real
Or if that's just not the way you feel

You're using me to the fullest extent
Now I want real love and I won't relent

I'm shit sick of these preschool games
This isn't just a crush
This feeling has a name

It's called love And that's what I feel for you
So let me know if that's what you're feeling too

I'm so tired of being played this way
You have to respect me everyday

I know you've got your friends
But is there time for me in the end

It seems as if you're caught up in them
And leaving me to rot Leaving me for the critics to condemn

I'm getting sick of this running in circles I must confess
That when it comes to your love
I must be second best
