The Other POV

You said you saw her last night somewhere, walking down Main Street
And you were surprised that she's back in town after everything
Go on, pretend you're fine, but it's obvious to me
I know that she's the reason why your mind's changing

Guess it was my mistake, got in the way of fate
This is the part I hate

I've seen this movie once or twice
The girl regrets losing the guy
Who thinks he's moved on, but he's not
Everyone sees through his façade

And so, she'll call and ask to meet
And you'll forget all about me
'Cause she was always who you'd choose
I'm just the other point of view

I always knew that I'd be second best at best
I always knew she left a big gaping hole in your chest
I always knew about the clothes of hers you kept
I always knew that it'd be you two in the end

I guess the joke's on me, stripped of my dignity
Oh, what a sad story

I've seen this movie once or twice
Someone gets broken in goodbye
Everybody else moves along
Don't even notice that she's gone

If that's my destined role in this
Then I already know who wins
'Cause she was always who you'd choose
I'm just the other point of view
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)

I was never meant to win your heart
I was counted out from the very start
Really never meant to be such an intruder
If you had been honest, I would've left sooner

Living in a story that's not told for me
I'm not the happy ending that they wanna see (wanna see)
I'm just the villain built to come between you two
I'm just the other point of view

(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
