Fall Back Guy

People talk You must’ve known that it would
Get around to my ears Nothing moves Faster than a secret It’s just a matter of time ’Til I hear whispers getting louder past my shoulder Nothing makes headlines like, “It’s over” tell me . . .
Am I your fall back guy Just a rainy day when the well is dry Am I your fall back guy Am I the second string, waiting in the wings For a curtain call am I Your fall back guy
Don’t you know
It’s better if you leave me Than leave me waiting in line Did you think I wouldn’t notice did you Think that I’d be blinded By a smile just as wide as it is guilty Or eyes with room for more than just me Am I your fall back guy Just a rainy day when the well is dry Am I your fall back guy Am I the second string, waiting in the wings For a curtain call am I Your fall back guy Nobody runs for a silver medal No one aims just a little shy of their mark I’m not here to be your plan B, your wait and see You can’t keep me in the dark
Am I your fall back guy Just a rainy day when the well is dry Am I your fall back guy Am I the second string, waiting in the wings Am I your fall back guy Am I your fall back guy Am I your fall back guy Am I the second string, waiting in the wings For a curtain call…am I your fall back guy
