Afraid Of Myself I smiled and said hi I couldn't continue the conversation For I felt my insecurities crawling up to my mind I walked away and left her perplexed I couldn't get help, my heart was way too congested And before I knew it The river in my eyes started flowing down the desert I call my cheeks So then I knew I couldn't face the truth I'll beat about the bush, failing to at least elude I wasn't even persuasive enough So I found a room and shut the door I had a fear I couldn't face A tear I couldnt erase A memory I wouldn't embrace And I sat there and stumbled across my perceptions I didn't want to give her the wrong impression So I unlocked the room and walked out And just then I remembered that couldn't face my fears And it really knocked me down And until today I'm still this way A poetic introverted mind is what I'd say

Afraid Of Myself
Afraid Of Myself I smiled and said hi I couldn't continue the conversation For I felt my insecurities crawling up to my mind I walked away and left her perplexed I couldn't get help, my heart was way too congested And before I knew it The river in my eyes started flowing down the desert I call my cheeks So then I knew I couldn't face the truth I'll beat about the bush, failing to at least elude I wasn't even persuasive enough So I found a room and shut the door I had a fear I couldn't face A tear I couldnt erase A memory I wouldn't embrace And I sat there and stumbled across my perceptions I didn't want to give her the wrong impression So I unlocked the room and walked out And just then I remembered that couldn't face my fears And it really knocked me down And until today I'm still this way A poetic introverted mind is what I'd say
