The picture of us



I hold in my hand



I realize myself,



My life was so grand



Before she came along



Before she took my place



Before she moved in



And took up the space



I watch you laugh



I watch her smile



There’s been no ‘me’



For quite a while



And she’s so perfect



Nothing like me



I’m so much better



Someday you’ll see



We were great, before she came



And swallowed up



All of my fame
