lirik lagu tylor carl - runner up
[verse 1]
excuse me world
i did not mean to interrupt
but if you could
just stop your wobble and listen up
i know, i know
survival, blah, blah, is your main task
but if it’s cool
i got a few questions to ask
why does it seem
that every time we have a dream
you’re always there
to separate us from our self-esteem
[pre-chorus]
and i know there’s a lot of us
and we’re all different
but you’re just the same
so i guess that means you’re to blame
’cause you’re harboring the best
and they let us know that we’re all worse
and there’s no hope for first place
that’s okay ’cause i’ll remember just one thing
it’s not the miles or the years
but more the smiles and the tears
they are more fierce
and what keeps me going
is knowing that, that, that
[chorus]
if almost famous
were a statement that lost its place
there’d be no need for this trophy
and it’s engraved with second place
but it’s all mine, it’s not yours
and i will take it in disgrace
shut it down, i’m overboard
and completely losing my faith in myself
and this life is nothing but a stupid game
that i can’t win, so lets pretend
that we’re not stuck in second place
[verse 2]
excuse me lord, up there
i see you sitting on your -ss
but i don’t blame you ’cause
you did so much for us back in the past
but the past is gone, we let it slide
we all f-cked up what you left behind
but to be kind we were all blind
to this courtesy of time, time
time for us to grow up
and lose our minds, minds, minds
oh, oh, oh, oh
[pre-chorus]
i know there’s a lot of us
and we’re all different
but you, just the same
so i guess that means you’re to blame
’cause you’re harboring the best
and they let us know that we’re all worse
and there’s no hope for first place
that’s okay ’cause i’ll remember just one thing
it’s not the miles or the years
but more the smiles and the tears
they are more fierce
and what keeps me going
is knowing that, that, that
[chorus]
if almost famous
were a statement that lost its place
there’d be no need for this trophy
and it’s engraved with second place
but it’s all mine, it’s not yours
and i will take it in disgrace
shut it down, i’m overboard
and completely losing my faith in myself
and this life is nothing but a stupid game
that i can’t win, so lets pretend
that we’re not stuck in second place
[verse 3 / outro]
that we’re not stuck in second place
that we’re not stuck in second place
that we’re not stuck in second
they told me i’m a pessimist
at least that’s what the optimists say
if only they knew
i just enjoy the beauty of uncertainty
and fear the wickedness of hope
so go ahead and climb your rope
and i’ll burn down the school of thought
from which it hangs from
now i know there’s a lot of us
but you’re just the same
so go ahead and pretend
at least i’m not stuck in third place
