Second Best

Everything's a lie

We're all gonna die

Before we say goodbye, let's attack



I admit it's bleak

But I give it a week

Until our friends the meek give it back



Is it true? Well it's true enough I guess

Join the chorus of the second best



Second best (several times)



What's left of you that's real

A mutated ideal

With limited appeal, I suggest



If hitting is an art

Then it's drawn us apart

When you erased your heart and beat your chest



Is it you? Well it's you enough I guess

You're an angel in a see-through dress

Is it true, yes it's true enough I guess



Second best (Several times)



Perhaps it's just as well

That I still look like hell

At least the world can tell us apart



Is it true? Yes it's true enough I guess

Come join the chorus of the unimpressed

Is it true, yes it's true enough I guess

Sometimes it's better to be second best



Second best (several times)
