about this song

The lyrics represent inner dialog he is wrestling with. He sees himself as someone who doesn’t belong at this event. He struggles with his desire to leave, his desire to be left alone (going as far as trying to figure out the worst thing he could say so no one will bother him), and finishing with repetitive attempts to give himself the courage to walk out. This is not a song of depression or sadness. It is the honest fear many feel at parties.
