nervous

Black Stone Cherry

Memory lane, it s 85, a baby boy with big blue eyes
And promises just waiting to be broken
A different voice, a different day
All the same in a different way
Lies are sweeter softly spoken

Sometimes I wonder why, why I even try
When nothing ever seems to change

I get nervous
Scratch the surface
Is anybody listening
I feel worthless
Introverted
The silence is deafening
Come tomorrow when I m older
I will be somebody s shoulder
I m not perfect, just a person
And I stay fucking nervous

Love and pain, lights that shine
Another chance for you to lie
Don t forget to say I love you
Something strange, to my surprise
Another lover you did find, it only hurts because it s true

Sometimes I wonder why, why I even try
When nothing ever seems to change

I get nervous
Scratch the surface
Is anybody listening
I feel worthless
Introverted
The silence is deafening
Come tomorrow when I m older
I will be somebody s shoulder
I m not perfect, just a person
And I stay fucking nervous

Tell me what I m looking for
Tell me what I m trying to find
I could never watch you hurt
Watch me break this fucking curse

I get nervous
Scratch the surface
Is anybody listening
I feel worthless
Introverted
The silence is deafening
Come tomorrow when I m older
I will be somebody s shoulder
I m not perfect, just a person
And I stay fucking nervous
