I have identity crisis around
please don't say I'm flawed
'cause you model interpersonal excellence
inspiration to us all, while hesitant
I get uncomfortable when I'm around you
but not for anything I mean
it's what I feel, and it's insane
how could you be larger than life?
What can I say but I freeze up when around you
it's a pretty lame excuse
but I swear, I say the cringiest things
the logic of my thoughts eludes me
Not sure of my value around you
It shouldn't have to be that way, right?
Each time I go on conversational limbs, it's wrong
it's wrong
When I look in your eyes, feel like I could cry
is it 'cause I'm small with something to hide
and you're larger than life?
Maybe you're more adult than me in ways I try to see and understand
feelings fall
Singing a song to right my wrongs,
confession just to pass the time
alone this time
I get uncomfortable when I'm around you
how could you be larger than life?
It's not my fault,
and it's not yours
How could you be larger than life?
