Second to Last

[Verse 1]
Is it bad I'm not happy for you?
And your new love you just put a ring onto
Disappearing's just something you do
We were over, no closure
'Cause you found someone new

[Pre-Chorus]
I swore that you would love my mom and all my friends
But you never met, you met someone else instead
Hate I'm holding on to what we had
'Cause now I'll never hold my breath
'Cause in my head (I'm never the one)

[Chorus]
I'm the one who knows it too well
That I'll be there 'till you find someone else
I'm vulnerable, emotional
I take it personal that I'm never the one

I got potential, but based on the facts
You're happy now and you're not coming back
I bet the next is gonna be the best you'll ever have
You'll last forever, 'cause I come second to last

[Verse 2]
Is it bad that I can't slow my dates?
'Cause I think everyone will end up the same
With me getting invested, getting rejected
Is not a chance I'll take

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause now I won't start something that's just gonna end
Wish we never met, and I met someone else instead
Hate I'm holding on to what we had
'Cause now I'll never hold my breath
'Cause in my head (I'm never the one)

[Chorus]
I'm the one who knows it too well
That I'll be there 'till you find someone else
I'm vulnerable, emotional
I take it personal that I'm never the one

I got potential, but based on the facts
You're happy now and you're not coming back
I bet the next is gonna be the best you'll ever have
You'll last forever, 'cause I come second to last

[Bridge]
The penultimate, the could've-been
The almost-came-so-close-to-it
The falling-short, the won't-be-yours
The not-quite-what-you're-looking-for
The one-away-from-your-everything
The person you wish you could change
The trial run, the old mistakes
Second to last, I'm just a phase (I'm never the one)

[Chorus]
I got potential, but based on the facts
You're happy now and you're not coming back
I bet the next is gonna be the best you'll ever have
You'll last forever, 'cause I come second to last
