Do You Have the Time? (social anxiety song)

Описание: DO YOU HAVE THE TIME?

VERSE 1
Socialization is hard for me
I live in my mind all the time
Small talk with strangers outside I see
Is harder than singing in rhyme

VERSE 2
Somebody told me a trick to try
To ease talking to other folks
Better than improv-ing on the fly
And better than cracking some jokes

PRE-CHORUS
Just say “excuse me, do you know what time it is?”
But underneath the surface
You’re really asking this:

CHORUS 1
Do you have the time
To look me in the eye
And smile and treat me like I’m a real person?
I want you to know
The lengths I have to go
To overcome this crippling introversion
Do you have the time for someone like me?

VERSE 3
I’m not concerned if you think I’m weird
Or awkward or cringey or dumb
I’m not as scary as I appear
So just please don’t treat me like scum

PRE-CHORUS
Hey you, excuse me, do you know what time it is?
But underneath the surface
I’m really asking this:

CHORUS 2
Do you have the time
To look me in the eye
And hear the one line I have been rehearsing?
I want you to know
The lengths I have to go
To make sure that I don’t look like I’m flirting
Do you have the time for someone like me?

CHORUS 3
Do you have the time
To look me in the eye
And say that it’s okay that I’m still learning?
I want you to know
The lengths I have to go
To show my face and act like I'm deserving
Do you have the time for someone like me?
