Wondering why you are second best

Wondering why you are second best...

And you tell me that you have a life and don't have time

When the truth is that you just don't want to make it

That you have moved on and never did tell the truth of anything

How many lies have filled your mouth

How heavy your soul is with deceptions and selfish ends?

You don't care if we live or die

Already the next day after you promise yourself to someone

You are ready to lay down with another

Acting like your kisses a sweetness that you only share with one

But it's only another lie that you tell

How far is love from your heart?

A truth that you will only share with one

And not be looking to wander before you have even done

Laying with the one that you are with

Why can't you be true?

You speak to me of passion

Of your god and Christ

But sister don't you understand

Your soul, your actions are in your own hands?

And what you do to another, you do just the same to yourself

You cry in the night wondering why you have been second best

Asking to be the only one and be truly loved

For the stars to shine down on you alone

But you fill yourself up with lies ready to pour them out

When love is given truly and without cost

So miles and miles away i'll be walking alone singing my own song

Dancing a dance that is made up on the spot

For nothing other than having made it this far

You broke my heart again

But it doesn't have to last and remain that way

The sun rises again

And the clouds part to let the daylight find a sleeping world

So all that has been can change

And i'll be whole again

Walking my own road...
