Bartenders and waitresses walk by
I stare off into space until you say, “Hi.”
There’s a really long list of things
That I’ve been dying to get off my chest
At the bottom of the list
Is one thing that I never thought I’d actually let you know
It’s the deepest, darkest thing inside me
I could never spit it out
Then I say a thing I can’t take back
And open up my eyes to see you react
