'Plan B'
And I wondered how can it be felt that effortlessly
The feeling of not being left out, when that one leaves
Only then you remember my existence and that I’m here
Seasons went by and you’ve travelled the world with that one in mind
Yet I’m still stuck here waiting for you but you never came
It wasn’t about being busy as you said, I just wasn’t the priority
That feeling of uneasiness in my chest that I get when
I realize I didn’t mean as much as you did for me
When I’m included only when others aren’t available
It feels like there’s a void in my heart surrounded by endless solitude
But can it be filled when I’m no longer the backup friend, your “Plan B”?....
