"Second Place" lyrics

Hold my ground
Everything's so complicated
I need you now
But you turn me away
And I fucking hate it

I spent the whole damn night
Waiting for you but you never came
I spent the whole damn night
Learning what it feels like when you're second place
I know you know it ain't right
But you just go and do it anyway
So I avoid that fight
They said that I should pick my battles carefully

But I hold my ground
Everything's so complicated
I need you now
But you turn away
And I fucking hate it

Don't bring me, bring me down
I'm breaking, breaking out
I'm barely holding onto this
I feel like I might lose my grip
Don't bring me, bring me down
Cause I can't take it now

This won't mean anything
But I need everyone to see
I wanted it everything
Now just a mess now I can clean

I just fuck shit up
Think enough's enough
I just really need a minute I should lay low
Fuck I hate your guts
Live my life in cuffs
I done battle with my feelings till I break down
Fall into a spiral till you find me laying face down
I met the devil and she told me it's a shake down
You let me crumble under pressure and the weight now
I know I made some mistakes
But I swear I'm gonna

Hold my ground
Everything's so complicated
I need you now
But you turn away
And I fucking hate it

Don't bring me, bring me down
I'm breaking, breaking out
I'm barely holding onto this
I feel like I might lose my grip
Don't bring me, bring me down

Don't bring me, bring me down
I'm breaking, breaking out
I'm barely holding onto this
I feel like I might lose my grip
Don't bring me, bring me down
