Second Best Songtext
von Momo Boyd

I wanna try my best for you
But that′s not what you want me to do
You'd rather I be more like you
A bit more easy going
And less invested
Would make you comfortable
And I wanna try my best for you
So I′ll hold it in
Be less to handle
Keep it casual
If that'll make you happy
I'll happily do it
The best I know how to


And i keep one hand in your pocket
The other holds a knife
One eye on your smile
The other cries to sleep at night
One part of my heart with you
The other locked up tight
Cause I know you don′t have
My best interests in your mind
I know you′d sooner leave me
Than ever do me right
Yeah

I recognize the look in his eyes
It's the same I give you all the time
The one of a love unrequited
That seems to change my mind
But he doesn′t know what I'm like
I′ll use his heart to bandage mine
When you're preoccupied
Hold his hand and feign romance
Just to pass the time
A girls got to do what she′s got to to survive


So i'll keep one hand in your pocket
The other holds a knife
One eye on your smile
The other cries to sleep at night
One part of my heart with you
The other locked up tight
Cause I know you don't have
My best interests in your mind
I know you′d sooner leave me
Than ever do me right
Yeah

And I′m hurting my own feelings
Won't take your actions as a sign
I′d rather have a piece of you than my own peace of mind
And I'm making my own reasons
Of why you′re busy all the time
Maybe it's just not our season but I can see it in your eyes

You know you don′t have my best interests in your mind
You know you'd sooner leave me than ever do me right
Yeah
