Afterthought

I don’t mind being just an afterthought

Afterthought

Caught in the maze, always the same

Security, I just can’t find with you

You only loved me when I was new

You’ll have your way, playing your games

Think I’ve accepted that I’ve lost to you

You know I like to be of use

But, baby, I might have to confess

Think that I thrive off your neglect

I never know what to expect

But, ooh, bae, when you notice, I lose all my focus

Look at where this lead

Think that it works to that effect

Call me a goddamn masochist

'Cause, ooh, bae, when you notice

I don’t mind being just an afterthought

Building a fantasy of what we’re not

Look at that smile, think it’s worthwhile

Fuck you’re so fine, I recall why

I don’t mind being just an afterthought

Afterthought

Staying in place, hoping you’ll change

I’ll believe what you say, then ignore what you do

You’ll promise, but ain’t no follow through

Feeling ashamed that I even stay

But you know I'll wait, 'cause, babe, that's all I do

And I don't really care 'bout the truth

Mmm

But, baby, I might have to confess

Think that I thrive off your neglect

I never know what to expect

But, ooh, bae, when you notice, I lose all my focus

Look at where this lead

Think that it works to that effect

Call me a goddamn masochist

'Cause, ooh, bae, when you notice

I don’t mind being just an afterthought

Building a fantasy of what we’re not

Look at that smile, think it’s worthwhile

Fuck you’re so fine, I recall why

I don’t mind being just an afterthought
