Lyrics

Being young,
it all feels so insecure
So many rules that don't make sense,
you did what you had to do

You took the shots,
you took the shots and made the most
and I, I stood to the side,
and refused to play the game

I made my choice, am I really that jealous?
Or do I just miss you, miss the time we spent together

I, I’m in this place you left behind
I watch you dance across my mind
but you’ll forget my name tomorrow

You climb to heights that never will be mine
you take from every cup you find
and don’t look back at me at all

When you reach the top,
will you even recognize it?
Can you see us in the rearview,
or do your eyes just look ahead?

You only help, you only help those who help you,
but where does that leave the rest?
You only look for your next step.

I trust my work, am I really this jealous?
Or do I just wish this was easier. or that you were someone else

I I’m in this place you left behind
I watch you dance across my mind
but you’ll forget my name tomorrow

You climb to heights that never will be mine
you take from every cup you find
and don’t look back at me at all

You you fought so hard to earn your seat
you claw as though there's scarcity
y'don't realize you're now the gatekeeper

And I, I watched you rise to royalty
And never expected to be
so far out of your sight

I I’m in this place you left behind
I watch you dance across my mind
but you’ll forget my name tomorrow

You climb to heights that never will be mine
you take from every cup you find
and don’t look back at me at all
