[Verse 1]
I know your coffee order
I know your train is late
I know the way you fold in
When you had a rotten day

You call me when it hurts you
When no one else is near
I keep my phone on open
I keep myself right here

[Pre-Chorus]
And I pretend it's something
More than just a seat beside you
You lean on me like shelter
Then you run back through the fire

[Chorus]
I’m your second choice
When the world goes dark
I’m the hand you hold
Then you break my heart
I’m your second choice
Still I answer fast
If you need somebody
I’ll be there for that

[Verse 2]
I hear his name in your mouth
Like rain against the pane
You wear his old sweatshirt
I wear this little pain

I watch you smile at pictures
Like he still lives in you
And I sit in the silence
Like I was born to lose

[Pre-Chorus]
But when your voice gets shaky
I come running, no questions
You say you need a friend
I say, "yeah, I get it"

[Chorus]
I’m your second choice
When the world goes dark
I’m the hand you hold
Then you break my heart
I’m your second choice
Still I answer fast
If you need somebody
I’ll be there for that

[Bridge]
If you ever fell apart
I would catch the pieces
If you ever needed proof
I would take the bruises
I could love you quietly
For the rest of my life
But I’m just the doorway
You walk through at night

[Final Chorus]
I’m your second choice
And I hate that truth
I’m the place you go
When he won’t come through
I’m your second choice
Still I answer fast
If you need somebody
I’ll be there for that
I’ll be there for that
(There for that)
