I walk into a room, feel the eyes on me
Hands start to tremble, I can barely breathe
Try to say something, but it comes out all wrong
A stranger in a crowd where I don't belong
Small talk's a puzzle that I can't quite solve
While everyone's laughing, I start to dissolve
Their words are like riddles, I can't comprehend
The harder I try, the more I pretend
I'm lost in conversations, slipping through the cracks
I say the wrong things, can't seem to relax
Awkward silences, the story of my life
Socially inapt, always on thin ice
They say, "Just be yourself," but it's never that clear
Who is that anyway? Someone please steer
I overthink moments till I lose the plot
Wish I could be normal, but I'm not what I'm not
Missed signals and stumbles, I'm out of sync
Their laughter feels distant, on the edge, I shrink
I try to fit in, but I'm always too late
A step out of rhythm, a twist in my fate
I'm lost in conversations, slipping through the cracks
I say the wrong things, can't seem to relax
Awkward silences, the story of my life
Socially inapt, always on thin ice
Missed signals and stumbles, I'm out of sync
Their laughter feels distant, on the edge, I shrink
I try to fit in, but I'm always too late
A step out of rhythm, a twist in my fate
I see them all connect, like it's second nature
While I'm stuck on the outside, a hesitant creature
I want to reach out, I want to belong
But every time I try, it feels so wrong
I push them away, afraid to let them near
What if they see through to the loneliness and fear?
Stuck in my head, where I can't break free
A captive of doubts that no one else can see
Some days I just wish for a place to unwind
Where words aren't a weapon and thoughts aren't confined
But till then, I'll stumble, I'll trip, I'll fall
Trying to make sense of this world at all
I'm lost in conversations, slipping through the cracks
I say the wrong things, can't seem to relax
Awkward silences, the story of my life
Socially inapt, always on thin ice
Maybe one day I'll learn to play the game
Find a place in this world, without all the shame
But for now, I'm just trying to make it through
Lost in conversations, unsure what to do
