NO, I will not be the second option,
Just like, from a failed pregnancy, to a forced adoption
I rather be your first, not the latter...
Settling with me doesnt flatter.
YES, my feelings do matter
NO, this heart you are not allowed to shatter
This is not a test
So why are there multiple choices?
Stop listening to the discouraging voices...
I should be first priority
In your heart, I should take up a majority
But I'm here as a minority
Engrave me in your mind
See my pain, dont pretend to be blind
Eenie meenie mini mo,
How much longer til I go?
How much longer til you show?
I just hope that you know
My impatience steadily grows
Am I, Am I next in line?
Am I, Am I next to call you mine...
Its a new day, do you have the time
Loving you is a felony
Im prepared to do the time
I have committed that crime
Im not an animal in a pet store
Im not some tiles to go on your floor
You cant pick n choose
Its either ya win or ya lose
With me, ya win,
Put down the walls and let me in
I despise that I love you
I hate the fact that I stay thinking of you
And while he plays with your strings
Treat your words as nothing...
I will let this deception sting...
At the end, who is really winning?
