"Bench Sitter" lyrics

My mom said that I'm way too good for you
And she doesn't know the half of what you put me through
I'm doing all this shit I probably shouldn't do

I'm staying up at night, waiting for the cue
Canceling my plans, last minute for you
Sneak you in my room, love me 'til it's light
Leave me once again, standing at the side

I could be a first place winner but I don't play
Could be a home run hitter in every game
But when you're out there with her and look at me
I'm just the best bench sitter you've ever seen
Could be a record-breaker, but I'm on deck
I'm not an A-team player, I'm second best
So when you're out there with her and look at me
I'm just the best bench sitter you've ever seen

The worst part is I kinda think that we'd be great
It gets dark and suddenly you feel the same
I'm turning my delusions into big mistakes

Here I go again
Practicing for what?
You'll never put me in
You'll never call it love

I could be a first place winner but I don't play
Could be a home run hitter in every game
But when you're out there with her and look at me
I'm just the best bench sitter you've ever seen
Could be a record-breaker, but I'm on deck
I'm not an A-team player, I'm second best
So when you're out there with her and look at me
I'm just the best bench sitter you've ever seen

So when you're out there with her and look at me
I'm just the best bench sitter you've ever seen
So when you're out there with her and look at me
I'm just the best bench sitter you've ever seen
