Everybody, testing 1,2,3
Everybody, here goes nothing
This pen can't write the words
As fast as I can think them up
In a state of half awake, I fill the page
With all my frantic thoughts
I hope one day
You'll get to read
What I don't have the guts to say
I hate how the words translate in normal conversation
So everybody, testing 1 2 3
I know you're listening so I hope I don't mess this up
This verse was the first I wrote when I didn't know what to say to you
Now my hand is cramping up because when I'm here I'm not afraid to
Write down the words that you hear right now
I sing them loud shut them out
Hello, it's me, can I have your attention please!
Everybody, testing 1 2 3
I know you're listening so I hope I don't mess this up
Everybody, here goes nothing
I know you're listening so I'll keep my fingers crossed
Yea oh oh oh oh oh oh
I know you're probably not impressed oh oh oh oh oh oh
I know it sounded better in my head oh oh oh oh oh oh
But if I don't get this out you'll never hear how
How it goes
Everybody, listen closely to the words I say
Can I please have your attention now?
Everybody, testing 1 2 3
I know you're listening so I hope I don't mess this up
Everybody, here goes nothing
I know you're listening
So I'll keep my fingers crossed
