Our story always ends the same
No matter how many pages I turn
In the end
I’m the friend in need
And you’re the main character, always having to help me
I try to rip the pages out
Hoping you’ll see me in a different light
But no matter how hard I try
I can’t rewrite our ending
I’m just a character in your story
The comparison
Only existing to show how amazing you are
I’m stronger than you give me credit for
But I’m meant to mess up
I’ll always be a page behind you
Destined to fail
I'm lost in your shadow
Desperate to shine
Will you ever realize
I'm your equal?
