Second Chance (Live at Rodeo Tour)

He posts you like a trophy You laugh like it don’t sting But I know every smile you fake When you’re not feeling anything You said he “treats you better” But you don’t sound so sure And I’ve seen you crying Right outside his door He says the right things When someone’s around But you flinch every time He lets you down I could’ve been the one But I was just a noise You always pick the pain And I’m the second choice You call me when he’s cruel Then hang up when you’re fine But I see the truth In how you waste your time You wear his name like armor But your voice is made of glass You told me I was “different” Then left me in the past He forgets what you’re afraid of He never really sees But I remembered every version Of the kid you used to be He breaks your rhythm And calls it real You keep pretending That numb is how you heal I could’ve been the one But I was just a noise You always pick the pain And I’m the second choice You call me when he’s cruel Then hang up when you’re fine But I see the truth In how you waste your time You said I was too soft Too safe, too known But he hurts you louder And leaves you alone I could’ve held the storm But you chose the noise You always pick the damage Like it’s your only choice You call me when he’s cruel Then vanish with the lie But I won’t be What you waste this time. I could’ve been the one But I was just a noise You always pick the pain And I’m the second choice You call me when he’s cruel Then hang up when you’re fine But I see the truth In how you waste your time
