It's hard to let go and trust that others won't hurt the people you care about.
Why is he always there?
A looming shadow
I can't compareI know he's important
Good for you
But I'm nothing when he's around
Sorry for being a little jealousBecause when he's there
You both want me gone
Or at least invisible
I become second choice like always
UnfavourableAnd I try to let it go
But whenever we make plans
You never let on that he will be there
And so I snap every time
What happened to us?And you wonder why I'm mad at you
You can't understand
I daren't tell you why
Then you'd be mad tooFor even though it's always been us against the world
With him
You split my heart in two
