Testo Shy Boy

Testo Shy Boy

This thing trips on the shortest of lips
and when the winter wind is blowing cold
I got a big old heart
One malicious remark just might hit me like a lightning bolt
They said I was shaky from the day that I started to walk
I carry such a heavy load
You know, you do a lot of damage when you talk that talk
'cause don't you know I'm a shy boy
I'm headed to the wall
at the top of the steps feeling like a smoking gun
Talking to the voices that don't talk back
It's you and me that I'm running from
They said I was shaky from the day that I started to walk
I carry such a heavy load
You know, you do a lot of damage when you talk that talk
'cause don't you know I'm a shy boy
A little baby cries out when he meets the world
The new day fears a setting sun
Talking to strangers always scared me to death and now here
I am talking to one
They said I was shaky from the day that I started to walk
I carry such a heavy load
You know, you do a lot of damage when you talk that talk
'cause don't you know I'm a shy boy
Can you truly take this fear away?
I keep it under lock and key
What if I make a mistake? I might not know what to say
Why do you put this burden on me?
They said I was shaky from the day that I started to walk
I carry such a heavy load
You know, you do a lot of damage when you talk that talk
'cause don't you know I'm a shy boy
