I hate awkward silence So I laugh ******* Conversation has run dry Anxiety gone awry And I'm left wondering why I'm so shy Painfully shy 'Cause it's getting painful for me to hide How I feel inside I just wanna scream and cry But I Just laugh I hate awkward silence I hate awkward silence
Deep down inside there is this emptiness that's waiting to be filled with people who are interested in knowing I Because I really am not so shy If I feel you are open, compassionate, kind, and comfortable with to confide We all got demons that we try and hide But I dislike and sometimes cannot control being quiet and shy But if I try to fight being quiet and shy I would say something stupid, turn red, and talk funny, like I got something caught in my throat because it's uncomfortable for me 'Cause I'm just not ready I guess it takes a while for a clam to come out of its shell Well, I hate awkward silence I hate awkward silence So I laugh ******* Then people look at me ******* But it's just my way of saying I'm friendly, you can talk to me Aw ****, I hate awkward silence I hate awkward silence
