Second Place to you is the last place I ever thought Id be

and in this race the selfish survive while the selfless suffocate in suffering

Im choking on the words that kept us alive

So kiss me and them and all we had goodbye



Where was I?

When they kicked out the lights

and when your world turns black you cant take back

all the lines youve crossed and trust youve lost



So take my hand, no, not to hold

You could use the extra fingers to count your mistakes

because this distance has only lead to deception

a curse for every mile

a lie for every smile



Where was I?

When they kicked out the lights

and when your world turns black you cant take back

all the lines youve crossed and trust youve lost



Drown in your goodbyes, and miss what we had



Foreign tongues are burning above self-righteous heads

you're so dexterous and articulate and i count on too many fingers and friends.

. . .and friends.



if your body is a temple then your roof is on fire



Where was I?

When they kicked out the lights

and when your world turns black you cant take back

all the lines youve crossed and trust youve lost



Drown in your goodbyes, and miss what we had
