All I Am

I can't see you with me
As I sink slowly and stare blankly
I'll grieve what you could've been
Not what terrifies the beauty within

You were spoilt for choice
And you were my first
Can you hear my voice?
Is my silence too loud?

Is my presence even known?
As you're out I'm alone
Bury the feeling, turn the lock
And throw away the key
If second best is all I am then,
That's fine by me

It felt so real to me
But truth and perception lay separately
Is it really you behind your words?
Is it love, the emotion and all the hurt?

Is my presence even known?
As you're out I'm alone
Bury the feeling, turn the lock
And throw away the key
If second best is all I am then
That's fine by me

I don't wanna be alone
I don't want to call home
Unless you're there
You're there
I don't wanna live a lie
I don't wanna love your eyes
Unless they see mine
See mine

I forgave everything
Now I can't forgive myself
You tuned all my heart's weak strings
But you'll play the melody for someone else

Is my presence even known?
As you're out I'm alone
Bury the feeling, turn the lock
And throw away the key
If second best is all I am then
That's fine by me
