2nd To You

See the colour of the sky
As I sit here wondering why
The birds are singing out of tune
As I make my hardest move
Feel the rythm of the earth
As I'm thinking is it worth
All the broken shards of glass
As I tell you this at last?

But It's time, I'll let you know

Every breath I'll ever take and, every decision that I'll make
Will never wipe the dust, of what's left of us
Every word I'll ever write will, be as empty as it should still
The least I could do, is to tell the truth
He'll always be 2nd to you

See the wrinkles on his face
It reminds me of your grace
As you lept into your life
Though your heart crossed every knife
As I look into his eyes
All I see is you inside
And I can't help to wish I'd lied
Cause a part of you just died

When I chose him over you that day, would it help if I say

Every breath he'll ever take and, every decision that he'll make
Will never wipe the dust, of what's left of us
Every word out of his mouth will, be as empty as it should still
The least I could do, is to tell the truth
That He'll always be 2nd to you

His mouth, his smile, his hands, his eyes
I paint him like it's not all lies
My heart and soul, I paint as ember
But like watercolour, I never remember
To wait, untiI I put anothor stroke on top of the other

And here in the midst of my biggest mistake, I hope

Every breath you ever take and, every decision that you make
Will be to wipe the dust, of what's left of us
Every word you ever write will, be as whole as it should be still
The least I could do, is to give you the truth
To heal with the knowing
That he'll always be 2nd to you
