I knew what it felt like to break
So I shielded my heart from ever feeling that pain again
I was so scared to love
But then you came along, with your kind words and soft hair
I wouldn't let myself feel
Because i'm not aloud to be happy
No one is suppose to love me back
But they told me you did
And maybe at one point that was true
So I pried open the bars of the cage
To release the damaged bird
And let myself feel
It felt so good
And for a while I soared
But then I noticed the way you touched me changed
Your words to me were no longer special
I could feel the void between us
Slowly it grew, threatening to destroy me
But I painted over it with false hope
And ignorance
I was so blinded by love
You never stopped loving her
And you didn't want me anymore
It was her
It was always her
And it was never me
It never will be
I'm always second best
