"Second Best" lyrics

"Second Best"

All the people all around us
Talking to and all about us
It’s the same
It will go away

Are you trying to be helpful?
Are you sleeping in the devils company?
Possibly

Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best

We can teach ourselves the lessons
And we can change it any second of the day
We used to say

Are you trying to be helpful?
Are you sleeping in the devils company?
Possibly

Don’t wake me up I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best

Love the life that we don’t have
I wouldn’t change a thing
Not much but we don’t mind
I wouldn’t change a thing

Love the life that we don’t have
I wouldn’t change at all
Not much but we don’t mind
I wouldn’t change at all

Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best

Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best

I’m not asking for any rest
