Second Best Lyrics by Yueku

Catch Me If You Can

2021

[Verse 1]
It's always gonna be too late
To say the things I'll never say
But honestly you wouldn't care at all
You left me here with all the weight
You didn't stop or hesitate
To find yourself in someone else's arms

[Pre-Chorus]
Had my walls up 'til I met you
And you changed me 'cuz I let you
And you build me up to watch me fall apart

[Chorus]
I was so guarded
Thought I was different from the rest
When all I am is second best, now I'm
Back where I started
You led me on I never guessed
I'm tired of being second best (oh yeah)
I try to see through all the mess
The perks of being second best (oh yeah)

[Verse 2]
Imagined you in an empty bar
Or the passenger seat of my car
The songs you like come on somehow, somewhere
Every drive-in that we ever saw
The place we used to mini-golf
The breaks from work you used to call
I don't miss that shit at all (no no)

[Chorus]
I was so guarded
Thought I was different from the rest
When all I am is second best, now I'm
Back where I started
You led me on I never guessed
I'm tired of being second-

[Bridge]
Had my walls up 'til I met you
And you changed me 'cuz I let you
And you build me up to watch me fall apart
Every lie you ever told me
They don't add up to your story
Now I wonder how I ever fell so hard

[Chorus]
I was so guarded
Thought I was different from the rest
When all I am is second-
Back where I started
You led me on I never guessed
I'm tired of being second best (oh yeah)
I try to see through all the mess
The perks of being second best (oh yeah)
I try to see through all the mess
The perks of being second-
