[Verse 1] I held the door, I bit my tongue Said all the right things, but it came out wrong Watched her fall for every jerk in line While I sat back, wasting time I sent the texts, I played it sweet Told her she deserves someone who treats Her heart like gold—but she’d just laugh Said, “You're too good,” then ran right past [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been the shoulder, I’ve been the friend But somehow I lose in the end [Chorus] Nice guys finish last, it’s a curse, it’s a fact I’m stuck in the friend zone, can’t find my way back She wants the drama, the thrill, not the calm While I’m just the guy who would never do her wrong Yeah, I’m always the one who cares too fast But nice guys finish last [Verse 2] She calls me up at 2 a.m. To cry about him cheating again And I just sit there, biting my pride Wishing I could be that guy I’d never leave, I’d never lie But maybe that’s just not her type Guess being kind is out of style Guess I’ll be alone a while [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been the rock when it all breaks down Still I’m the ghost when he comes back around [Chorus] Nice guys finish last, it’s a joke, it’s a trap I’m tired of losing while wearing the mask She says, “You’re amazing,” then walks away Like I’m just a stoplight in her getaway Yeah, I give my heart but no one asks ‘Cause nice guys finish last [Bridge] Maybe I’ll change, play it cool Act like I don’t care, break some rules But that’s not me—it never was I’m just the guy who loves too much [Breakdown / Chant] Hey! Hey! I’m done being the safety net Hey! Hey! No more playing second best [Final Chorus] Nice guys finish last, yeah, we break, we crash Still we pick them up while they speed right past I won’t pretend, I won’t disguise The truth that’s screaming in my eyes If caring too much is such a blast... Then screw it—nice guys finish last
