Drinking Song for the Socially Anxious

In the back of a cab like a puppet with no strings Untangling my headphones 'Cause sometimes they're the only thing That keeps my head in place Keeps my head in place Arriving at the door, I hope to God I'm not the first My heart is tearing pages From that funny story I rehearsed And I know I won't be long 'Cause I know I don't belong 'Cause though my jokes are my armour And my kindness is my sword The party swirls around me in a dress I can't afford And I do my best to breathe But they're stealing all the air And the hum from the fridge'll Sing me soft little vigils As all my steps too far keep telling me "This is who you are", I should go home I'm not lonely, just like being on my own And I'll sing silence And ask my glass of wine for guidance I might not make it tonight And I'll speak with my eyes You'll think I'm weird, one sympathizes I might not make it tonight Because I don't find this easy like you Gonna go home and show my cat some memes 'Cause he's awesome like me Like me Now I'm lying on a bed full of coats Trying desperately to cope When you open up the door, say something stupid like "You're lying on some coats", I say, I know Just sometimes nice to feel what it's like To be in someone else's coat Now we're bursting at the seams 'Cause the noise is crushing us We think it's so much worse than it seems But that voice unsaid is rushing us And in a moment of total rapture With every strength I have I ask if you play D&D And your face lights up like you've woken up From this endless fucking nightmare Of pretending this is you This is us, this is me and this how we're meant to be But your smile tells me I'm safe And that voice unspoken's heard 'Cause if God make us all in his image Then God's a fucking nerd And I'll sing silence And ask my glass of wine for guidance I might not make it tonight And I'll speak with my eyes You think I'm neat, I'm not surprised That I might not make it tonight Because I don't find this easy like you Gonna go home and dress my cat up like Batman 'Cause he's awesome like me And I'll sing silence (and I don't) And ask my glass of wine for guidance (find this) I might not make it tonight (easy, like you) Gonna go home and tell my cat (I'm not lonely) I'm not lonely if I'm (I just like being on my own) With you In the back of a cab, like two puppets with no strings We share a pair of headphones 'Cause sometimes they're the only thing That keep our heads in place Keep our heads in place I totally messed it up again Did you? Like three times, three, three separate places For fuck's sake
