Makeshift3 - Runner Up lyrics

I just set myself up when I fell so hard for you I thought I was number one when I was really number two That's when it all changed when you found someone else You left me far behind I sure hope you pleased yourself Now that you've moved on who will help me do the same? Who will tell me that it's all right and that I'm not the one to blame? We both know I'm just a runner up in your eyes But please don't go even though I'm just some second place prize This one goes out to all those who've heard those lines from that special one you love Like a Charlie Brown Valentine Rejection at its best Even though it feels the worst to hear them start to say any of the lines in this next verse: "I'm seeing someone else." "I think we should just be friends." "I really like you a lot but please don't call me again." "If we had known each other before things might have changed." But now I'm number one and number two just isn't the same It seems to always end the same Just another rejection game Another time that I got tossed I guess that I've lost When you think that you're counted out or it's time to hang up the gloves Don't start throwing in the towel Look for inspiration above I don't know why I used all the boxing metaphors It's just another way to say, "Jesus loves you more and more." Go ahead and go I'm not a runner up in His eyes Leave me alone because I'm not your second place prize Since you stole my heart can you give it back today? Because you never really cared You will just throw it all away Instead I'll give to God what I should have all along The love that's in my heart Jesus, to you it all belongs God's eternal care Amazing amounts of grace Unconditional love lifting me out of this low place d**h is not an end In fact it's just a start of Heaven's eternal life because I've got Jesus in my heart From Him I will never part God's only begotten Son I guess that I've won
