"Too Much" lyrics

"Too Much"

First day, big school
Trying to keep my trepidation hid
Shrink along the corridors
Feeling out place, feeling like a fool

So you're the new kid
You're kinda cute, what's up with you
I wanna say something cool so bad
But my face goes bright red

Too much desperation
For a casual conversation
Way too much information
To try and bridge the distance at all

Okay cool I'll see you around
She laughed and my whole body cringed
No wait let me try again
I could really use a friend
But once I start I can never shut my mouth
I go on & on & on in a drone
Til even I'm not listening

Too much desperation
For a casual conversation
Way too much information
To try and bridge the distance at all

How long do I pretend I'm ok
Before I actually feel ok
And when will someone come along
And say buddy it don't work that way
Don't let yourself be buried here for always

How'd it go today
Comes the question in the quiet car ride home
Pretty good, I guess

Too much desperation
For a casual conversation
Way too much information
To try and bridge the distance at all
