What made you think that I was weak for being sad? It took a lot of strength to walk away like that I don't believe that you believe in all you said But I should've known We’ve come a long way Time always brings us here We couldn’t help ourselves from falling And all I wanted was to make you happy, dear And I think you were But I’ll never be him We’ll never be safe I'm so good to you Well, clearly that's not what it takes Because will never beat him In a fair world I could Because you know I’m the one who puts a smile upon your face I guess it should've been him If I were him I’d be approved by default I would have checked all the boxes I wouldn’t have to do much more than stand tall That would be enough You would look good with me with no need to pretend I’d have the right to hold your hand If I were him I would be the one for you But what do I know? Because I’ll never be him We’ll never be safe You’re so good to me Oh, what difference does it make? Cause I’ll never beat him He’s not even that good And you know you’re the one who puts a smile upon my face It shouldn’t matter what they say and think But I know it does to you I’m sick and tired of fighting fights I’ll never win When it’s not that difficult Because we both know he shouldn’t be the one who stays It should’ve been me I wish you didn’t take the easy way (It should've been me) The one right by you everyday (It should've been me) The one who writes the vows I couldn't wait to say It should’ve been me
