Lyrics

And now we’ve reached the moment
This thing I have to do
I have been dreading for so long
I know that they won’t listen
But I must soldier on
And try to get my point across
Maybe they’ll care

My throat is sore as hell
And I can barely speak
Still I must go out there
And make my case to those who judge

And the hour is drawing close
When I’ll have to face them all
Every ounce of me says no
But I can’t sit idly by

The seconds crawl away
I can’t sit still at all
My nerves are shot to hell
But here we go again tonight

With all the eyes of boredom fixed on you
Your first job is to hold their gaze
Their prime source of distraction in their hand
You must keep them from looking down
And when they are compelled by that last buzz
You have two seconds to change them
So when the absentminded look your way
How will you hold their attention

I can’t relax at all
I don’t know what to do
My mind is shot to hell
But here we go again tonight

I don’t want to do this
What does this charade teach
It’s a waste of my time
Also I am scared to death

Something comes up - in time it’s all the same
Try to speak up and not just be so tame
In my anger I forgot what I had to say
My emotions forced my language into decay
But it’s time...

I introduced myself and
The mic let out a shriek
And everybody turned away
When that stopped I kept going
I could hear my voice shake
I hope I stayed on script today
Maybe they cared

Something comes up - in time it’s all the same
Try to speak up and not just be so tame
In my anger I forgot what I had to say
My emotions forced my language into decay
But it’s time...
