I can't speak very well
My lips tremble when I talk
I can't walk very well
My legs shake when I walk

I know how to speak
In fact, I know millions of words
I just don't know where they go
And i don't know who to send them towards

I'm sure I learned how to say how I feel
But, my teacher left out a very important part
They forgot how hard it is to piece the words together
When they've been stuck at the bottom of my heart

It's hard to say what's on your mind
When you don't have a thesaurus
There is plenty of antonyms for my fucked up emotions
Amazing, wonderful, stupendous and glorious

Maybe I just haven't learned the right language
Im sure there's a class for this
But, as for me
I don't think I was built to handle this
