Plan B

I'm sick and tired of being second choice,
A backup plan when things just don't work out.
Send me a postcard if you're lonely.

I'm so over being settled for
And tossed aside with things you don't need now
like all the dreams of what we won't be.

And I said oh but just hold onto my hand.
I'm so scared of falling.
It's a long way down on my own.

I'm not so sure what to say
When all my words don't mean a thing
And you just can't be honest with me.

I'm getting used to being all alone
And set to finish last is what I'm told.
Forget the fact I've tried so hard.

I'm so over of all these hypocrites
That tell you what they want then change their minds.
I can't believe I've made it this far.

And I said oh but just hold onto my hand.
I'm so scared of falling.
It's a long way down on my own.

But you let go.
I'm learning not it's my fault for all the space you wanted.
It's a long walk home all alone.

I'm not so sure what to say
When all my words don't mean a thing
And you just can't be honest with me.

All those years washed away
Like all the distance in between
My broken heart that won't stop bleeding.

By now I'll admit that I've been in nothing but denial
And if the good die young then I guess I'll be here awhile.
I thought you'd understand that I needed time just to think
And try and figure out what I thought we were going to be.

And just hold onto my hands.
I'm too scared of falling.
It's a long way down on my own

But you let go
And I've learned now it's my fault for all the time you said you need.
It's a long way home all alone.

I'm not so sure what to say
When all my words don't mean a thing
And you just can't be honest with me.

All those years washed away
Like all the distance in between
My broken heart that won't stop bleeding.
