about

A plaintive cry for attention

lyrics

Why do you treat me like an afterthought?
I can’t compete if I’m your last resort?
I won’t be plan B
I want to rewrite your history….but
I’m never going to be anybody’s afterthought

Craving my fingertips – an afterthought
Wearing me upon your hips – an afterthought
I’d be stranded, girl
If I took you for granted, girl - so
Why should we ever be - anybody’s afterthought?

Let me be the first thing on your mind
I’m not looking for a reason, baby
To leave this love behind

So don’t let me dangle in an afterthought
While you are strangling that astronaut
Come back down to earth
I still adore you, for what it’s worth, but
I’m never going to be anybody’s afterthought
