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) |
