(Verse 1) The kitchen light's a pale, yellow glow It's half-past three and the world feels slow I see the worry in your eyes, a silent documentary Of all the promises I've broke, and the man I swore I'd be I know that sigh, I know that look, it's a familiar, painful art It's the space between the person that I am, and the one you hold inside your heart (Chorus) And I'm sorry that I'm still not the man you want me to be I'm chiselin' at the stone, tryna find a better me I'd rewrite all my pages, change my history Anything to be the one who brings you happiness, you see I'd walk through any fire, I'd swim any sea Your happiness is my number one, even if I'm your number two to him, honestly. (Verse 2) I'm tryna bite my tongue, I'm tryna hold my breath When you light up at a notification on your chest You say he's just a friend, a shoulder you can lean upon But I see a different kind of light, the second I am gone You talk about the things you share, the jokes I don't understand And I'm just sitting here, with my heart held in my hand. (Chorus) And I'm sorry that I'm still not the man you want me to be I'm chiselin' at the stone, tryna find a better me I'd rewrite all my pages, change my history Anything to be the one who brings you happiness, you see I'd walk through any fire, I'd swim any sea Your happiness is my number one, even if I'm your number two to him, honestly. (Bridge) And if his voice is what brings you peace, a comfort I can't give... Then I'll just learn to live with it, for as long as I live. Yeah, I'll swallow all my pride, I'll bury my regret And put out every fire of this slow-burning jealousy 'Cause your smile is my religion, even if I'm not the cause. I'll just sit here in the quiet and feel my broken heart... pause. (Chorus) So I'm sorry that I'm still not the man you want me to be. I swear I'm tryna change my entire personality. I'd do anything to be the one who brings you happiness, you see. I'll just quietly feel my heartbreak, 'cause you're happy, and that's enough for me. Your happiness is my number one... Yeah, your happiness is my number one... Even if it means I'm your number two... and he's the one. (Outro) Mmm... your number two.
