"Second Fiddle" lyrics

Listen, silent sound of shame
Now the trenchant blade feels once again
Can you please hold me a little?
It's nothing but a foolish game
The hands of time will show you that we're both to blame
Can you please give in, just a little?

I forgot you for a second, I
Don't know if I want you in my life
Can we please find a way, a rhythm?
The dark that used to be our light
Is now a never ending lovers fight
We don't need this ugly fallback, schism

You just keep on going, a drive
And my depression aches, never felt so alive
Can you please love me a little?
You can't throw it all in the fire
Look at me, I have one more desire
Can you please touch me a little?

I forgot you for a second, I
Don't know if I want you in my life
Can we please find a way, a rhythm?
The dark that used to be our light
Is now a never ending lovers fight
We don't need this ugly fallback, schism

Is there a better place
Where you and I can talk and simmer down?
Somewhere we can get along in the middle
You and I, we both need our space
But we can't escape from this lonely sound
No one wants to stay and play the second fiddle

I can remember your face
We used to cry together on solid ground
There's nothing like a broken heart it reveals
Our history will leave a trace
Cuts deep like a knife from the underground
But still I want to thank you, I loved you for real
