I Don’t Know How to Talk To People Anymore Lyrics by Ben Thornewill

I Don’t Know How to Talk to People Anymore - Single

2021

[Intro]
I don’t know how to talk to people anymore
[Verse 1]
There was a time when it was easy
When I could talk to a person all evening
Now I’m exhausted all the time
[Pre-Chorus]
I used to be able to conversate
Tell a story, I could entertain
Chat at a bar with a stranger or two
But now I stare into space
[Chorus]
I don’t know how to talk to people anymore
Every time I talk I’m like
“What did I say that for?”
My mouth is moving, but every word’s a chore
I don’t know how to talk to people anymore
[Verse 2]
Made the mistake of making eye contact
Now it’s giving me a heart attack
If they say something I’ll have to talk back
[Chorus]
I don’t know how to talk to people anymore
Every time I talk I’m like
“What did I say that for?”
My mouth is moving, but every word’s a chore
I don’t how to talk to people anymore
[Bridge]
That’s right, better believe it
I used to be a cunning linguist
It’s good to see ya
It’s been a pleasure
But I am going home (ooooh, home)
So I can be alone (ooooh, so I can be alone)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I don’t know how to talk to people anymore
Every time I talk I’m like
“What did I say that for?”
My mouth is moving but every word’s a chore
[Outro]
I don’t know, I don’t know how
I don’t know how
I don’t know how to talk to people, talk to people anymore
Every time I talk I’m like
“What did I say that for?”
My mouth is moving but every word’s a chore
I don’t know how to talk to people anymore
