Writing songs that go unsung
Always holding back my tongue
Suddenly it feels so wrong
Idling for far to long
I regret the path that I chose
Kept my walls up and my doors closed
I’ve never been the type of person who shows
And well, that’s my fault I suppose

But, I’m tired of being quiet
So I’ll give myself away
Can’t see the point in hidin’ no more
There’s so many things I wanna say
Like hey, I think you’re cool
And I’d love to be with you
If that’s something you wanna do someday
I mean really can it be so hard to just say hey?
I mean really can it be so hard

A message lacking punctuation
I overthink the conversation
It’s just a friendly situation
Lowering my expectations
I’m sick of my cowardice
Through with feeling powerless
I won’t get anywhere with this if I don’t take a couple risks
So I’m tired of being quiet
So I’ll give myself away
Can’t see the point in hidin’ no more
There’s so many things I wanna say
Like hey, I think you’re cool
And I’d love to be with you
If that’s something you wanna do someday
I mean really can it be so hard?

It’s hopeless, but I’m trying
Cause it can’t be worse than hiding
I’m the only person I’ve been waiting on
And I’m not used to urgency, but I hear someone telling me
I have to take my chance before it’s gone

Cause I’m tired of being quiet
So I’ll give myself away
Can’t see the point in hidin’ no more
There’s so many things I wanna say
Like hey (It’s hopeless, but I’m trying)
I think you’re cool (Cause it can’t be worse than hiding)
And I’d love to be with you
If that’s something you wanna do someday
I mean really can it be so hard (It’s hopeless, but I’m trying)
To just say hey? (Cause it can’t be worse than hiding)
I mean really, can it be so hard
