[Verse] No you didn't really try Got me waiting on the outside Looking at your perfect smile While you wave me on through And it's hard to take the hit After all I gave to it And my momma told me not to But I still put my faith in you [Pre-Chorus] And I thought we were in the finals It was do or die for us [Chorus] Then you dropped me in the lineup As the second best loser The second best loser In the middle of the night I'll be thinking of all the things I coulda done But you know I'm not the one I'm the second best loser The second best loser And the next time that I try I'll be going for number one I'm not gonna be number two [Verse 2] And the prize was in my hands Till you slipped out in the end But you know you can have her It's what you deserve And she loved me first So just say I didn't warn you She's not the kind of girl that you can hold She won't let you know [Pre-Chorus] And you thought you were in the finals It was do or die for us [Chorus] Then you dropped me in the lineup As the second best loser The second best loser In the middle of the night I'll be thinking of all the things I coulda done But you know I'm not the one I'm the second best loser The second best loser And the next time that I try I'll be going for number one I'm not gonna be number two I'm not gonna be number two
