lyrics

It's the middle of December again
Same old story, a couple less friends
And I, can't sleep tonight
I thought I finally got a glimpse
Of what it might be like to not be by myself
But I, I'm alone tonight

Chorus:
Oh, I'm always in second place, never come first
Oh, for all of my life and each time it gets worse
Cause I'm always the one who just gets left behind
While everyone else seems to have life fly by
And I'm here crossing the line after everyone's gone

I think I'm finally losing it
Keep having these thoughts that I try to pretend
That I, I surely can't
Cause I got my hopes up again
I thought I'd mean something but it's all ready the end and now
I, just try to get by

Chorus

And I hope that I never start to believe
That I've ever cared to much
Cause I think it's always worth it to bleed
And I'll admit that I've been angry with God
Cause after all that I've done
Why must I feel so lost
