Yourself
Panicking, I can't breathe
My heart's pounding
I wanna leave
My anxiety's resounding
You look so beautiful
And I feel like a fool
Standing here alone
Like a pathetic baboon
Feeling self conscious
Don't look at me
My fear becomes obnoxious
Fingers crossed, I hope you don't notice me
Wanting to make a better first impression
I've learned my lesson
Be myself in all situations
Otherwise I'm left with self degradation.
