Insult To Greatest Injury

I never thought this would be true I never thought this day would come so soon I never thought I would look at the calendar and see it so Out of the bountiful friends I once had I'm only down to a handful Out of the many people I've held close ones I thought would never change here it is a new season and they're changing like the leaves Adryanna I can't say I know what's going on I cab't say I know what went wrong cause I don't really know but it was my mistake my mistake for believing I could run, I could run run away from everything run away from you run away from our growing empty space and return like the snap of a finger and just like that, find you running back into my arms I guess the blow to the head caused me to forget forget distance hates me, hates you forget that you get lonely too forget.. but I guess she forgot that I said I wanted no one else, no else but her I said it in love letter I said it, I said it I promised nothing more but to be the best but here I stand in line as second best once again Does my cycle ever end And to reclaim my place in line I have to say... but how many times have I said the things I need to say Too many count, too many days too late So all I'm good for is a day late friend So all I'm good for is a loser in disguise No, I'm a loser on the outside I thought things would change this year or so I thought I thought I was more than a hopeless romantic well so I thought I thought I was... but no... All I'm good for is a place holder All I'm good for is holding someone else's place in line All I'm good for is a doormat to walk all over while I wear is a t-shirt that says day late friend Insult to greatest injury
