Beautiful Tragedy

I know I can never compete with someone like that
What a lost cause
Why did I ever think differently
You’re worth the wait
But I’ve been messed up like this before
I don’t want to add another to that list
 
I’m the second choice
The fallback
The close, but not close enough
My heart is nothing but a black hole
Though I love so much I have no soul
So why even try
Why even get up
Just to give up
All over again everyday
 
I could change everything
I could throw it all away
But that still doesn’t mean you’ll stay
I can’t be the one to push you
But I can be the one to love you
If you give me just a second glance
 
I’m the second choice
The fallback
The close, but not close enough
My heart is nothing but a black hole
Though I love so much I have no soul
So why even try
Why even get up
Just to give up
All over again everyday
 
I can’t decide for you
I won’t last forever
But we can have forever
If we’re together
I can’t fix my mistakes
Nor yours
We could be a mess together
A beautiful tragedy
 
I’m the second choice
The fallback
The close, but not close enough
My heart is nothing but a black hole
Though I love so much I have no soul
So why even try
Why even get up
Just to give up
All over again everyday
 
Why even try
Why even get up
Just to give up
All over again everyday
I don’t ever wish to wake
