I don't understand you.
How can I be so much better than the girl
But still be second place to her?
Why I won't ever have the opportunity
To be the priority
Why won't I ever get to hear
How you need me here?
This isn't fair.
I shouldn't have to settle.
My momma said I was pretty
Daddy said I was strong
My teachers said I was smart
And my friends were just wrong.
Because I can live without you.
Silver chains don't compare
To the gold around her neck
And the crown in her hair.
To her you call her "princess"
To me you say "what's up"
And it's tearing me to pieces
Am I just not enough?
I don't want second place silver
What I want is diamonds and gold
And if you wont give it to me
I guess I'll just have to go.
