Diffidence

Everybody got their moments, their doubts and their fears

A little voice inside that echoes through the years

We laugh, we joke, we play along, but deep beneath the show

The things we hide are common ground, we're more alike, you know

We used to watch their faces, afraid of every glance

Thinking they'd be judging us with every single chance

But here's the truth we've learned, they're all just like us too

So why waste time on overthinking what they'll never do?

Diffidence consumes us, it wraps us in disguise

Hiding all our shadows, beneath unspoken cries

We're all so afraid, yet no one dares to show

Ashamed of the whispers, afraid they'll overgrow

But facing them head-on is the only way to go

On all the first dates, we're playing by the rules

Hiding all our quirks, afraid of looking like a fool

But love's not built on acting, it's trust that holds it near

The right one sees your flaws and still keeps you here

We stumble and we question, the paths we're walking through

Afraid of wrong directions, of dreams that won't come true

But walking known roads only hides the dreams we've yet to find

Maybe now we're just half, but the future's bright in mind

Diffidence consumes us, it wraps us in disguise

Hiding all our shadows, beneath unspoken cries

We're all so afraid, yet no one dares to show

Ashamed of the whispers, afraid they'll overgrow

But facing them head-on is the only way to go

Diffidence may linger, but it won't define

We'll rise above the shadows, let our courage shine

Through every doubt and whisper, we'll find our way to see

That facing all our fears is what sets us free

Diffidence consumes us, it wraps us in disguise

Hiding all our shadows, beneath unspoken cries

We're all so afraid, yet no one dares to show

Ashamed of the whispers, afraid they'll overgrow

But facing them head-on is the only way to go

But facing them head-on is the only way to go
