I'll never be the best to you
Or to anyone at all
I'll be good but it won't be enough
My efforts are too small

There will always be one ahead of me
That girl who wins your heart
I was winning the race the entire time
But she came, and I fell apart

I almost won, I was close again
But close doesn't get me first
I want to win, but not today
Because with second place I'm cursed
