Lyrics

Hey, how are you doing?
I’m shaking in my boots
You’re holding conversation while I'm crafting the illusion
That I know how to talk to you

But you’re right there and you’re looking me in the eyes
And I’m scared you’re gonna figure me out
So I’ll sit
I’ll just be quiet
And try to think of something good to talk about

My communication
Is amateur at best
Your heart is on your sleeve
But I’ll be honest I’ve been playing
Closer to the chest

In your car I’ll be staring straight ahead
Looking for something to get in my way
But nothing’s there
And so I’ll wait
And see if you can think of something else to say

I don't know how to express
All the things that I've been feeling
Is there anything in there?
I wish I had something special for you

Don’t think this is what they meant when they said
Never speak unless spoken to

But it’s too late
The moment’s gone
And I still don’t know what I should say to you

If I really focus
It just keep getting worse
Maybe I should take a breath
And have faith in the moment
I’ll try to break my curse

And I know I’ve got a long way to go
But I swear, I want to figure it out
So let’s sit
I won’t be quiet

I don't know how to express
All the things that I've been feeling
Is there anything in there?
I wish i had something special for you

Don’t think this is what they meant when they said
Never speak unless spoken to

But it’s too late
The moment’s gone
And I still don’t know what I should say to you
