Pansy Division - I'm The Friend lyrics

I’m the friend you know me
In the cast but never the lead
In the back a supporting role
Not the one whose story gets told
But, I hang around till the end
I’m the friend

I’m the friend a shoulder to cry on
And depend to trust and rely on
You know me so consistent
You can talk and I’ll be there to listen
I don’t get the guy in the end
I’m the friend

I’m the friend whose pride gets swallowed
Always waiting for tomorrow
Not the one who wins the prize
Always watching from the side
Keep my feelings to myself
The focus always somewhere else
On the edges, on the fringe
On the outside looking in
Wary of the final score
But always hold out hope for more

I’m the friend taking the back seat
Not the one you’re waiting to see
Overlooked taken for granted
Know my role even when I can’t stand it

When it’s all been done and said
When it’s all been done and said
When it’s all been done and said
I’m the friend i’m the friend
I’m the friend
