Olivia O'Brien - second love Lyrics

Olivia O'Brien Lyrics

"second love"

I'll be right here where you left me
'Cause you had to run back to her
I was a ship and you wrecked me
'Cause you felt much safer on the earth

I'm the christless, she's the Empire State
Always stuck in second place
Just when I think that I'm winning the race
I realize it was just a chase

Second love
I'm not enough
Red ribbon
Silver cup
I'll always be the runner-up
Second love

They said first is the worst and that second's the best
But the heaviest hurt but you never forget
So no matter how much I can love you to death
It's just never enough to get out of your head

I'm the christless, she's the Empire State
Always fucking second place

Second love
I'm not enough
Red ribbon
Silver cup
I'll always be the runner-up
Second love

I'm always the two and I'm never the one
And I'll only get slower the faster I run
'Cause I've already lost at the sound of the gun
You can't forget her, you'll always remember
That I'm good enough but you know that she's better
You like me for now but you love her forever

Just when I think that I'm winning the race
I realize it was just a chase

Second love (Always the second love)
I'm not enough (I'm not enough)
Red ribbon
Silver cup
I'll always be the runner-up
Second love
