Lyrics

See a girl across the bar, I think she’s making eyes at me

No, no, that’s impossible, ’cause no one ever looks at me

Though I could be wrong, it just seems way, way fucking too far-fetched

Better off just sitting here, maybe one day I’ll have the guts

Don’t know how she’d react, it really, really holds me back

Though I wonder what would happen if I went and said hello

See a girl across the room, looks like she’s here all by herself

Wonder if she’s interested in talking ’bout our favorite bands

But let’s be real, my approach game isn’t really very good

I’ll protect my self-esteem, cause it’s better than that pipe dream

Don’t know how she’d react, it really, really holds me back

Though I wonder what would happen if I went and said hello

Scared of what she’d say, scared I’ll just blow it away

So I’ll just sit here and instead stay inside my overthinking head

Talk myself out each time, call it caution, call it pride

Won’t pretend that I don’t care, I do, I’m just scared to try

About Me

I’m a rock record producer with a background in filmmaking and a passion for capturing raw energy through sound. I’m studying Recording Arts at Full Sail University and have been producing independently since I was 10, developing a style rooted in punchy guitars, driving rhythms, and honest emotion. My film background taught me the importance of emotion and pacing, and that’s what drives my approach to production. I aim to make music that connects, hits hard, and stays real.
