Her voice cracks, it twists and turns me in a way I can't explain
Call it jealousy, call it an act of faith in my belief in me
(It doesn't really matter)

CHORUS:
I only hope to be as good as she
Even though I'm not supposed to compare (2x)

I am dancing in her shadow,
I am playing in her light
I am making her guess
at every left and right
I am closer than she thinks,
I crawl inside her head
To feel the way her blood boils,
the memories that she's had

CHORUS:
I only hope to be as good as she
Even though I'm not supposed to compare (2x)

I am two steps ahead as she falls behind
I stand back and capture
the diamonds that she finds
I come out of night like a
slowly creeping mist
I want to do wrong,
I want to do right,
it's revenge that I kiss

CHORUS:
I only hope to be as good as she
Even though I'm not supposed to compare (2x)
(It doesn't really matter)
