Still I Speak
😸
Social anxiety of speaking up. I know what to say, but the words don’t follow.
Decided to also put this as the fear of karaoke - Stefan Pasek. 😂
Vocals - auto-tuned me. I tried being a bit more clear in the mic.
Lyrics - Me
Music - Suno.
[Verse 1]
Deep in my thoughts
Lost in my heart
Voices get loud
They push me too far
I know what I need
I know what to say
But when it comes out
It just fades away
[Pre-Chorus]
The stares
The panic
The breathing
The waiting
It’s all closing in
[Chorus]
Pound, pound, pound
My heart drops down
Skips, breaks
I lose the sound
I’m standing here
But I can’t move
Caught between
What I know and do
[Verse 2]
The words try to come
But they don’t land right
Stuck in my throat
Every single time
Tripping my lines
Falling inside
Everything’s there
But nowhere to find
[Pre-Chorus]
No sound
No action
Still and full of angst
Right before I run
[Chorus]
Pound, pound, pound
My heart drops down
Skips, breaks
I lose the sound
I’m standing here
But I can’t move
Caught between
What I know and do
[Bridge]
The vocals come out
Stagnant and tight
Cracking apart
But I keep trying
Something shifts
I feel it turn
A little control
Starts to return
[Outro]
The confidence comes back
Not all at once
But enough to stand
Here I am
At the mic
Still shaking
But I speak
I enjoy these too much. 😅
