i see the places
full of familiar faces
they're calling out to me
oh temptation brings frustration
i know what will be will be
i made my choices
but inside those voices
of ghosts from long ago
they want me to stay
travel their way
so sad when i say no
now i choose
i don't want to lose
this i will confess
i've walked that road
it's a heavy load
i won't take second best
no i won't take second best
i'm like a child
i'm going wild
making and breaking the rules
learning to talk
i want to run not walk
in my brand new pair of shoes
now i choose
i don't want to lose
this i will confess
i've walked that road
it's a heavy load
i won't take second best
no i won't take second best
no i can't take second best
so i won't take second best
