Lyrics

Kiss whoever you want and I'll be here
Giving myself a pep talk
Trying to face my fears
Didn't mean to cry before the show
But when somebody's mean to me
I can't let it go
I want it all, all at once
When you look at me
I know that I'm enough
I feel like I'm catching up
I have always been the Runner Up
I kiss whoever I want
You're still around
Traded in our privacy for a smaller town
Didn't think I'd be saying this out loud
Haven't touched myself this much
Since I learned how
I want it all, all at once
Please don't look at me like that
Like I'm covered in your blood
I'll make a mess, but I will clean it up
I'm so pathetic walking home in the rain
It's like a movie, but it's real
So it's not the same
I pass it on street signs
I read it on graves
Half the people I'm meeting are named what you're named
And it's just a normal, boring name
I'm defective
A loser
I feel so ashamed
There's no secrets here, so kiss her again
At the bar that we go to with all of our friends
I want it all, all at once
I'm in the back, but don't worry
I'm pushing my way to the front
I feel like I'm catching up
I have always been the Runner Up
Have I always been the Runner Up
I have always been the Runner Up
Kiss whoever you want, and I'll be here
