Lyric Second Best
Everything s a lie
We re all gonna die
Before we say goodbye, let s attack
I admit it s bleak
But I give it a week
Until our friends the meek give it back
Is it true? Well it s true enough I guess
Join the chorus of the second best
Second best [several times]
What s left of you that s real
A mutated ideal
With limited appeal, I suggest
If hitting is an art
Then it s drawn us apart
When you erased your heart and beat your chest
Is it you? Well it s you enough I guess
You re an angel in a see-through dress
Is it true, yes it s true enough I guess
Second best [Several times]
Perhaps it s just as well
That I still look like hell
At least the world can tell us apart
Is it true? Yes it s true enough I guess
Come join the chorus of the unimpressed
Is it true, yes it s true enough I guess
Sometimes it s better to be second best
Second best [several times]
We re all gonna die
Before we say goodbye, let s attack
I admit it s bleak
But I give it a week
Until our friends the meek give it back
Is it true? Well it s true enough I guess
Join the chorus of the second best
Second best [several times]
What s left of you that s real
A mutated ideal
With limited appeal, I suggest
If hitting is an art
Then it s drawn us apart
When you erased your heart and beat your chest
Is it you? Well it s you enough I guess
You re an angel in a see-through dress
Is it true, yes it s true enough I guess
Second best [Several times]
Perhaps it s just as well
That I still look like hell
At least the world can tell us apart
Is it true? Yes it s true enough I guess
Come join the chorus of the unimpressed
Is it true, yes it s true enough I guess
Sometimes it s better to be second best
Second best [several times]
