Second Place

by Silverbrant   Feb 4, 2007


I Won Their Wars
I Brought Them Peace
I Bought Them Friends
They Took All Mine

I'm Tired Of Always
Coming Second Place

Their Boyfriend
Their Girlfriend
Their Other Best Friend
Will Always Win The Race

I Stand Out From The Crowd
Embarrass Them So
They Don't Want Me
In Their New Lives At All

I'm Tired Of Always
Coming Second Place

Their Boyfriend
Their Girlfriend
Their Other Best Friend
Will Always Win The Race

I Rolled Out The Welcome
Made A Parade And A Fuss
They Ignored The Banners
Went Straight For The Punch

I'm Tired Of Always
Coming Second Place

Their Boyfriend
Their Girlfriend
Their Other Best Friend
Will Always Win The Race

And Now I See
That Silver Is Me
I'll Always Be There
In The Shadows Nearby
Waiting For Them
To See That I'm
More Than I Am

I'm Tired Of Always
Coming Second Place
In The Race That Is Life
The One I Would Lose For You
