When my head feels kinda soggy
Like there's balloons behind my eyes
I try to take some air in
But my chest refuses to rise
When my breath won't force the words out
And my feelings start to show
My fear begins to leak out
And I'm afraid they all will know
I'm shaky inside
Maybe I don't want to talk today
I'm shaky inside
How can I trust what I might say
I'm shaky inside
I wanna pass, and that's ok
Cause sometimes you gotta hide
When you're shaky inside
I can't say where I am comin' from
I can't find any common ground
How can I tell 'em what I listen to
When we don't hear the same sound
Other people share what's on their hearts
But that's way too tough for me
I gotta hold back some hidden part
Cause I'm afraid they all will see
I'm shaky inside
Maybe I don't want to talk today
I'm shaky inside
How can I trust what I might say
I'm shaky inside
I wanna pass, and that's ok
Cause sometimes you gotta hide
When you're shaky inside
Who doesn't clutch their heart
Before they start to share it
Never hot, never warm
Always thinking twice
Cold as ice
Calm as an eye in a storm
If I ever decide to talk again
Maybe I'll let ya know
If I ever share what's on my mind
Will it go the way that these things go
Will ya just sit there and listen
Cause sometimes that's enough
If I give you a chance to look at me
You're gonna see I'm not so tough
I'm shaky inside
Maybe I don't wanna talk today
I'm shaky inside
How can I trust what I might say
I'm shaky inside
I want to pass, and that's ok
I'm shaky inside
Maybe I don't wanna talk today
I'm shaky inside
