Too many times i've been the one branded second...
with eternity of thinking when to end my protest...

Each night as i try to fall asleep
the thought of you just seems to creep...

With the strength I see in you each day
I begin to feel weak...

Like a bullet shot from a sniper rifle
I get upset over the smallest trifle...

I'm untied
From chains...

You've been through more
Than I can even say...

Sitting in the shadows of your world
without a glimmer of me in your eye...

Why do we open our hearts to the pain
And hurt ourselves so much...

I try desperately to close my eyes
So then I could go to sleep...

As I sit here and feel the pain
You have fun with another guy...

It started as a game
Between two who were in love...

A shady sky
for a shady day...
