Insignificant other from Naked Truth by Sirens and Prophets

I can’t let bad luck get me down,
You’re never sure quite what you’ve found.
Should I give a second glance?
Should I give this one a chance?
Does she really make me smile?
Does it get old after a while?
Should I give a little trust?
Should I give into the lust?

Then I see, I’m not all that myself
Is the bar too high? Don’t I need a little help?
Insecure as it seems, I’ll cut her a little slack
Knowing she may need to cut me a little back.

And if I take the leap, unsure if I’ll, land on my feet
I can not lose my faith, though things may blow up in my face
I’ve looked in too many eyes, searching where, my future lies
I’m almost afraid to see, have I just found another, Insignificant other

So she passed the final test,
She stands well above the rest
Finally eased my cautious guard,
Am I making this too hard?
In my confidence I let her see,
All the lesser shades of me
Selfishly I’ve focused on my needs,
Oblivious of how it may be seen

Then I realize, I’m not sure where she stands
This model of perfection is slipping through my hands.
Neurotic as it sounds, I cling to ground I’ve gained
Watch her drift away, and shrink back from the pain

And if I take the leap, unsure if I’ll land on my feet
I can not lose my faith, though things may blow up in my face
I’ve looked in too many eyes, searching where, my future lies
I’m almost afraid to see, how you all envision me,
I’ve looked in too many eyes, endured too many long good-byes,
I’m almost afraid to see, have I become another, Insignificant other
