Anxious (Demo) Lyrics by Hippo Campus

Demos I

2019

[Verse 1: Jake]
I could say it right now
But it's not the time
You see those friendly faces but they only make you anxious
You could shout it out now
In the crowded space
People have been hoping but I've never been that open
[Chorus: Jake]
I've been here before
Don't you know it's not the same
Don't you know I'm not the one who told ya
I've been here before
Don't you know it's not the same
Don't you know I'm not the one who told ya
[Verse 2: Jake]
I wish I'd seen this family's start, so I could see us thrive
We didn't make it out together, but we made it out alive
See, it's not about hope, as much as honesty
I need you in this fight, so we can someday get it right
[Chorus: Jake]
I've been here before
Don't you know it's not the same
Don't you know I'm not the one who told ya
I've been here before
Don't you know it's not the same
Don't you know I'm not the one who told ya
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
I wish this head would quiet down
So I could talk to you
Help me sound out what's been in and we can finally make it through
I could say it right now
But it's not the time
I know you've been hopin'
But I've never been that open
[Bridge: Jake]
I'll scream it but I won't believe it
I'll tell you what you want to hear then
Just give me a week or two to find it
Then maybe we'll try hard to ignite it
[Chorus: Jake]
I've been here before
Don't you know it's not the same
Don't you know I'm not the one who told ya
I've been here before
Don't you know it's not the same
Don't you know I'm not the one who told ya
[Outro: Jake]
I'll scream it but I won't believe it (I've been here before)
(Don't you know it's not the same)
(Don't you know I'm not the one who told ya)
I'll tell you what they want to hear then (I've been here before)
Just give me a week or two to find it (Don't you know it's not the same)
(Don't you know I'm not the one who told ya)
Then maybe we'll try hard to ignite it
