lyrics

you barely ever really known me, but we'll say we're old friends
and when i show up to a party i've rehearsed some small talk skits
i can't believe i'm even forcing myself and i think you agree
yet here we are at another function grinning politely

getting to know you, not this circumstance
like giving up walking out on me, mid sentence
if i can help it, it's okay
i don't even mind being called fake
man, i'm just trying my best

and every time i run my tongue, i don't know what to say
so i grin politely just to get through the day
thank God you're here to tell me how to behave
another awkward kid who needs to be saved

and my best, man, it's always the same i guess
living life with no confidence
feeling lost without consequence
all the acoustics would stop and then
time passed slowly and the fear kept growing
until you shut down completely
my defenses depleting
and i guess this is me now
i would curse your name and still harbor all of the blame
for a point the i lost in vain
