Runner-Up

Shes gonna blow
Her faulty circuitry exposed
Although you feel ashamed
Im sure she seemed
So real from far away

Just when you get up your nerve
To take her at her word
Hiding out somewhere safe
Shell set that hook inside your mouth
You just wait, shes a fake

Shes on a roll, shes the perfect picture
Of complete control
But underneath her stage
Shes scared to death
You might mean what you say

Just when you get up your nerve
To take her at her word
Shell draw you in for one last taste
And when its time she will deny
What she embraced, shes a fake

And she will take all that you will let her
But you will never get her

'Cause youre the runner up, you better learn
To keep your big mouth shut
You can talk all day
But youre gonna leave
Exactly as you came

Just when you get up your nerve
To take her at her sorry word
Its an awful truth you face
Nonetheless you better learn
When to cut bait

Shes a fake
