Oh bittersweet tears of separation
Guide me done a path of happiness
Go past the dark forest of loneliness
And across the lake of fear
This is the best path for me
I want to give this up
I'm tired of crying
These bittersweet tears of separation
I fill with dread as I realize I'm always second best
Second best to your friends
Second best in my own family
I'm second best to even you
You'll always be better than me even if I know you'll never admit it
I need to separate from you
Cut you out
Because I've already let yo in and you've hurt me so many times
I just want you go and never come back
So I will never have to feel this pain in my chest
Everytime you speak of someone else
I know I'm second in everything
But for one I want to be first
In your eyes
And you've yet to realize
I'm slowly fading
Because I can't take the bittersweetness anymore.
