why can't you just give it a rest
why are you putting our love to the test
I can't handle being second best

I see you watching her
and it makes me so unsure
I should be above the rest
I can't handle being second best

I'm the girl you are with
and yet I feel like fifth
like in my own house I'm a guest
I can't handle being second best

So go ahead and put me last
but it's gonna end way too fast
you shouldn't make me feel like this
i SHOULDN'T feel like second best [comments] => 6 [counter] => 169 [topic] => 48 [informant] => breny [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

It reminds me of that saying..
"I wouldn't be a nag if you'd treat me like a champion"
