Nervous Behavior

Shaky breath, tiptoes, I'm on the wire,

Words like grenades, one spark, it’s fire.

Eyes dart around, reading vibes like Braille,

One wrong word, and the ship might sail.

Walking on eggshells, crackin' my soul,

Mind in a vice, can’t seem to feel whole.

Heart's beat racing, trapped in the fear,

Nervous behavior, it’s crystal clear.

Thoughts ricochet, like bullets in my skull,

Your silence cuts deeper than a blade that's dull.

Tongue tied, choked up, can’t find the flow,

Every step I take, the landmines blow.

Cage of my own, bars made of doubt,

Screaming inside, but the words don’t shout.

Your eyes, sharp daggers, dissect my intent,

This love’s a game, but my heart’s been bent.

Walking on eggshells, crackin' my soul,

Mind in a vice, can’t seem to feel whole.

Heart's beat racing, trapped in the fear,

Nervous behavior, it’s crystal clear.

Midnight mirror, can’t face who I see,

Fakin' strong smiles, but I’m beggin’ to be free.

Used to have grit, but I'm crumbling slow

A haunted house where the shadows grow

Walking on eggshells, crackin' my soul,

Mind in a vice, can’t seem to feel whole.

Heart's beat racing, trapped in the fear,

Nervous behavior, it’s crystal clear.
