Second Place
When I was young
Life it seemed so long
Like I could live forever
I thought I was strong
But as I grew it felt like the length of a song
Filled with rights and wrongs
Holding ties that bind
Till the end of the words
Of the lyrics you heard
Oh, I ponder, I search
For the meaning of it all
I ask myself why
Would I even try?
Spent my whole life
Tryna touch the sky
But I keep falling on the ground
Watch them pass me all around
Feels like I'm losing all my faith
That I will ever take first place
The rain hides
The tears upon my face
And where the sun is so distant
Another losing race even though
I never stop, I never stop fighting
Or giving up the chase
I always find myself stuck in second place
I ask myself why
Would I even try?
Spent my whole life
Tryna touch the sky
But I keep falling on the ground
Watch them pass me all around
Feels like I'm losing all my faith
That I will ever take first place
The shows not over yet
All though it's the lowest I've ever been
Being down on the floor brings room to grow
Room to take control
To not be like this no more
You ask me how I cope?
The fact is that I don't
I let pride take all my soul
Until I'm lifeless bones
I know giving up I won't
And first place I will know
Life it seemed so long
Like I could live forever
I thought I was strong
But as I grew it felt like the length of a song
Filled with rights and wrongs
Holding ties that bind
Till the end of the words
Of the lyrics you heard
Oh, I ponder, I search
For the meaning of it all
I ask myself why
Would I even try?
Spent my whole life
Tryna touch the sky
But I keep falling on the ground
Watch them pass me all around
Feels like I'm losing all my faith
That I will ever take first place
The rain hides
The tears upon my face
And where the sun is so distant
Another losing race even though
I never stop, I never stop fighting
Or giving up the chase
I always find myself stuck in second place
I ask myself why
Would I even try?
Spent my whole life
Tryna touch the sky
But I keep falling on the ground
Watch them pass me all around
Feels like I'm losing all my faith
That I will ever take first place
The shows not over yet
All though it's the lowest I've ever been
Being down on the floor brings room to grow
Room to take control
To not be like this no more
You ask me how I cope?
The fact is that I don't
I let pride take all my soul
Until I'm lifeless bones
I know giving up I won't
And first place I will know
