Caught up in my thoughts
Staring at the mirror
Just me, yourself and I
Are you my ally
It's not crystal clear

I think of all the words I should've said
Or the things I would've, could've, done instead
My inner voice keeps telling me I'm bad
I need some confidence

I get anxious and fidgety
When I shouldn't be
I don't open up easily
But I'm trying
My words don't come easily
At a party
I just need some time
To let my true self-fly

A battle in my head
I'm hanging on a thread
You gotta get a grip
Cuz you feel like a chip
Hanging on my shoulder

I think of all the words I should've said
Or the things I would've, could've, done instead
My inner voice keeps telling me I'm bad
I need some confidence
Just a little confidence

I get anxious and fidgety
When I shouldn't be
I don't open up easily
But I'm trying

My words don't come easily
At a party
I just need some time
To let my true self-fly
