I hope this doesn't freak you out
But I thought I'd just say
"Hey"
I know we've barely spoken out of school
But is seems I've grown attached
To the thought of you
And to tell the truth
I use humor to mask my insercurities
I need to stop overthinking you.
So,
I try to be funny,
Quite a bit
And look at me now,
Stumbling over a joke you've probably heard before
Cause all I'm paying attention to is the way you look at him
So I cross the room and clear my head
Wishing it was me instead
Who
Always keeps you interested
I close my eyes
And count to 10
I need to stop overthinking it
I might not be
Everything you asked for
I know that
And you might take a look at me
And say,
"Is this the kind of guy who chases after me these days?
Guys who use humor to mask their insecurities?"
Well,
I try to be funny,
Quite a lot
And look at me now
Stumbling over myself at a party I wasn't invited to
Drink in my hand trying to find a spot
To sleep and I see you
You with him
I start to drift off nothing left but me and my thoughts
Does she even know that I exist?
I close my eyes
And count to 10
I need to stop overthinking this
I would ask you to take me as I am,
But it won't do,
Any good
Because
What you see isn't who I am
I would show you if I could
I change the way I speak
And how I act
And what I say
Cause I'm a afraid that you won't like me any other way
And I use humor
To mask my insercurities
So,
I try to be funny
All the time
And look at me now
Stumbling over the words of I song that I wrote for you
A song you'll probably never hear
Because I'm
Too ashamed
And too afraid
What kind of person writes a song about a girl he's barely spoken to?
I close my eyes
And count to 10
I need to stop overthinking you.
