Intimidated


I'm intimidated now
While all the words I think just won't come out
We're holding on so tight
Waiting for some silence in the night

And socially I'm yours
With stuttered awkward pauses changing course
There's nothing left to say
I'll watch another midnight waste away
Watch another midnight waste away

I don't wanna be intimidated
No I don't wanna be another face in the crowd
Everything that flies will get deflated
And everything I say will get shot down
Everything I say will get shot down

I'm searching through my mind
Why can't you see the words are hard to find?
In struggling with some thoughts
Of everything this is and what it's not

We'll take it to the streets
Walking as I stare down at my feet
And in this crowded room
To find some more relief when I resume
Find some more relief when I resume

I don't wanna be intimidated
No I don't wanna be another face in the crowd
Everything that flies will get deflated
And everything I say will get shot down
Everything I say will get shot down

I look around but still can't see
So what the fuck is wrong with me?
Well it used to be that I was scared
Of words but now it's silent prayers

For conversation's sake you know
With all these hopes I'll let it go
To speak these words and hear them back
But without them how can I react?

I don't wanna be intimidated
No I don't wanna be another face in the crowd
Everything that flies will get deflated
And everything I say will get shot down
Everything I say will get shot down

Everything I say will get shot down
But wait another day and I'll come around
