[Verse 1]
I’m your shadow when she fades away
A backup plan when she won’t stay
You call me up when the night gets cold
But I ain’t your safety net to hold
I’m the echo of the love you chase
A placeholder in your empty space
You lean on me when your world’s askew
But who’s gonna catch me when I fall through
[Chorus]
I’m tired of being your rebound
Your friend
The girl you call when your heart won’t mend
You only show up when she’s out of view
I’m done playing second to the ghost of you
[Verse 2]
You got me on a loop
A broken track
I pick you up
Then you throw me back
I’m not your bandage
Not your fix
I’m done with these games
This tired remix
You text me late
I know the drill
Your words like smoke
They never heal
You only want me when she shuts the door
But I’m not waiting around no more
[Bridge]
What am I
Your emotional crutch
Your backup plan
Your midnight clutch
I got a name
I got a heart
I’m not just here to play your part
