Your back up

by alexandra   Jun 3, 2004


I'm your back up
the one you know will always be there.
I'm your "just in case"
if anything goes wrong, I'm your spare.

I'm your second choice
in case the first one breaks your heart.
I'm your last resort
the one that has cared since the start.

I'm your desperate measure
when desperate times come through.
I'm her understudy
when she decides to leave you.

the second i walk away
words come from your mouth that are so sweet.
and I'm back to you again
being lifted off my feet.

i can't believe myself
when i realize I've done it again.
i let you use me another time
and i realize how stupid i really am.

i know your stupid plan
yet i still can't do it.
i know i should just walk away
but there's more to it.

why am i being punished
for loving you?
why are you with her when you say
you love me too?

so please shut up
stop saying those stupid lines.
i need to get away from you
i need to make up my mind.
