Its easy they tell me, But that doesn't stop my stutter when asked 'What I would be buying today', Telling me I'll grow out of it, Doesn't help, When I walk home from the shop, Empty handed, Because the thought of talking to the cashier scared me away, Saying I should stop being stupid, Only makes it worse, As I lie awake into the early hours of morning, Ashamed of myself, For not saying all those things I couldn't say, And doing all those things I couldn't do, So you see, Your words of encouragement, Aren't really helping, Are they?

Leave me alone with my shattered soul.
Its easy they tell me, But that doesn't stop my stutter when asked 'What I would be buying today', Telling me I'll grow out of it, Doesn't help, When I walk home from the shop, Empty handed, Because the thought of talking to the cashier scared me away, Saying I should stop being stupid, Only makes it worse, As I lie awake into the early hours of morning, Ashamed of myself, For not saying all those things I couldn't say, And doing all those things I couldn't do, So you see, Your words of encouragement, Aren't really helping, Are they?
( I will fix this up a bit later on, but I really needed to this up to ease my mind.)
