never been anyone's first choice

never been anyone's first choice

used to be the ugly duckling

people thought I was pretty funny

then they see me walk and they feel pity

it's not cool to have a crush on the wheelchair kid

I got older

lost the wheelchair

but my confidence was shot

now I'm chasing every good feeling

making up lost time

can't fill the hole

might have found a good thing

need to be patient

but I've never been more scared

I might be healing

but it might be too late

I might have lost you

before I got you

can't blame you for seeing the red flags

should I be waiting

could we be dating

I wish you'd be more clear

but it's not cool to ask how someone feels

I think those are stupid rules

if you choose me

you have to tell me

I've never felt requited love
