I sit and watch you with tears in my eyes
Nothing I can do for you, I can’t tell you why
You sit in sadness and say you love her, you miss her
And I know nothing I do will ever be enough for you.
All she gave you was not what you deserved
Yet you wish you got more, you’re so blind to me
As I sit on the sidelines with no voice of my heart
I want to give you the things that you need
Be anything that you ask me to be
You say I’m so perfect, so flawless, so beautiful
Then why won’t you choose me?
You sit and cry at the past
While I’m here wanting to be your future
But that doesn’t matter to you
Because she was all you ever needed.
I sit and cry at night, it’s too much to bare
To love with all my heart when you’re not there
I want to give you everything that I have
But I know that I’ll never be what you want.
This doesn’t matter anyway, like I have a chance
Like you would care for me and ask for a dance
But I’ll be here anyway incase you need a shoulder
I’ll stick around and just act like your soldier
Because that’s all I’ll ever be to you.
I’ve found my fairytale, you’re my prince charming
But the only flaw to this story is I’m not your princess.
I’ve stopped wishing on stars
They won’t work anymore
It’ll just keep reminding me of what I can never have.
If you ever wanted me too, well isn’t that a laugh
And I try to make you happy every day
However you want.
The people writing the saying missed out the part that says
It will hurt
Because love truly is the slowest form of suicide.
It hurts to make you happy
Because I know I’m not needed, not wanted
But never again shall I find another quite like you.
