lirik lagu sophie dingsdale – second place trophy (acoustic)
i can live with only one toothbrush in my bathroom
pulling faces at romcoms and eating alone if i have to
i won’t hold it against you if you call me by her name
cause we have the same favourite film
and our faces sort of maybe kind of look the same
your face holds a permanent residence in my dreams
but i think you forget about me on the days that we don’t speak
i hold a second place trophy but at least i’m on the podium
cause i’ve gone twenty years without and i can’t bear to be alone
again
you hold my face between your hands
like i’m nothing more than a prize of commiseration
an arcade game rigged against my odds
saying, “you’ll never win but hey, thanks for playing”
they say half is better than nothing at all
but i’d love to know how you smile when you don’t have to fake it
who gave me the nerve to want any more?
to want any more
december chill, pushing fifty in your mother’s car
you know every word, every beat to her favourite songs
i’ll swallow my pride if you swear that you’ll call
i’m hedging my bets on promises you made with your fingers crossed
so hold my face between your hands
like i’m nothing more than a prize of commiseration
an arcade game rigged against my odds
saying, “you’ll never win but hey, thanks for playing”
they say half is better than nothing at all
but i’d love to know how you smile when you don’t have to fake it
who gave me the nerve to want any more?
to want any more
you tell every story just to say her name
you bring her up at least fourteen times a day
while you forget i’m here, while i’m just an afterthought
cause i’m holding your hand but she still holds your heart
and part of me wishes you’d be red~faced with shame
you’d apologise profusely and let time take the blame
as it always does but it’s been long enough
the wound would be long healed but you love to open it up
you love to open it up
half is better than nothing at all
but i’d love to know how you smile when you don’t have to fake it
who gave me the nerve to want any more?
to want any more
