During her set all that I can do it think, and overthink of what I'm gonna say
'Cause all I want to do is simply let her know how much her music means to me
Without coming across as an idiot or a creep
She's just a person there's no need to freak out
Keep telling myself there's nothing to worry about
But then her eyes meet mine
(prechorus)
Suddenly and simultaneously every fiber of my being is
telling me to leave and burning with an unyielding self loathing
(chorus)
Every silence is excruciating
I can tell she is trying hard
To accomodate for my inability
(Just end the conversation)
To assemble a coherent thought
(Turn around and go)
I had things to say 30 seconds ago, I swear I did, I swear
Not that I really expected to seem well-versed or debonair
I just don't want to come across as an idiot or a creep
She's just a person there's no need to freak out
Keep telling myself there's nothing to worry about
But then her eyes meet mine
(prechorus)
(chorus)
Luckily, Lauren O'Connell will not remember me
Not with all the places she goes and the people that she meets
It's a small comfort to know that I
Will be the furthest thing from her mind.
