Stray Dog

[Verse 1]
I see the light dimming in me
Hard to believe I could ever land
I like to think I'll meet contentment
Oh, I'll shake her hand
We'll walk through my old neighborhood
And laugh about my regrets
'Cause when pain expires, it's all at once
And it's easier to forget

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be in second place
The stray dog waiting to be saved
'Cause there's nothing you could say to bring me home
Oh, I've got to get there on my own

[Verse 2]
What am I chasing
A moment in the sun or validation?
And I'm someonе you can see
If you reached you would feel me
That I'm morе than fear stored in people, in places
I don't know anymore

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be in second place
The stray dog waiting to be saved
'Cause there's nothing you could say to bring me home
Oh, I've got to get there on my own

[Outro]
I don't wanna be in second place
'Cause there's nothing you could say, oh
