No one's favorite

INTRO
...mmmm...mmm...mm...

VERSE 1
I’m the friend they call when no one’s around,
But never the one they keep close.
I crack a joke, and they all laugh loud,
But when the night ends, I walk home alone.

CHORUS
I’m no one’s favorite, just filling the space,
A shadow that fades when they turn their face.
I pretend I’m fine, though it cuts me deep,
Wishing for a love that I get to keep.

VERSE 2
I play the clown, hide the ache inside,
Make them smile so they won’t see mine.
The loudest laugh in the quietest pain,
I’m sunshine to them, but I walk in the rain.

CHORUS
I’m no one’s favorite, just filling the space,
A shadow that fades when they turn their face.
I pretend I’m fine, though it cuts me deep,
Wishing for a love that I get to keep.

BRIDGE
I’m the punchline they’ll always recall,
The one who makes light when their world feels small.
But when the spotlight fades, and the crowd moves on,
Who’s there for me when the laughter is gone?

CHORUS
I’m no one’s favorite, just filling the space,
A shadow that fades when they turn their face.
I pretend I’m fine, though it cuts me deep,
Wishing for a love that I get to keep.

OUTRO
Maybe one day, someone will see,
The friend I am, the heart in me.
But until then, I’ll carry this weight—
Living each day as no one’s favorite.
