Her smiles above me
outdo my own fake one.
She holds up her trophy - first place -
as I hold up my own - second place.
How could this have happened?
I tried so hard...
For years, now,
I've come second
to girls I hate
and girls I love...
I always try my hardest,
but first place always slips away from me.
Every year,
I only wish to be first - if only just once.
To see what it feels like.
Just so I can smile for real.
First place girls...
they never try.
Somehow they're just awarded the golden prize.
Then why never me?
Maybe I'm just not special enough.
Maybe I'm not good enough.
All I want is that someday (if only one day)
I could be first place.
