Stepping Stone Lyrics by Jonathan Fuller

When Did You Get So Damn Scared

2023

[Verse]
Remember when you took a tennis racket to the face?
You tried your hardest not to cry
But angry tears in fits and starts kept springing from your eyes
You were so mortified
You didn’t even know me but all I could think was
“God I hope he feels better”
Remember when I tried to introduce you to my mom?
We’d known each other for a week
She didn’t know just what was going on
I’m sure my voice betrayed the giddiness that I was feeling
Undefinable, but sharp and light
And filling my whole body

[Chorus]
How you saw me
The possibility
I didn’t know enough to call it love

[Verse]
Remember when our parents sat us down
To tell us we were banned from talking on the telephone
‘Cuz we were tying up the line
And our phone bills nearly doubled from our constant conversation
Still, they were probably relieved
Their sons were finally making friends
Remember when we tried to download the first episode of Queer as Folk?
It took all night
It also was illegal
And it didn’t even finish
But the laggy, low-res glimpses of that dance floor
Made my dark suburban basement feel more temporary

[Chorus]
Stay up all night
Lean in to what feels right
I didn’t know enough to call it love

[Verse]
Remember when we roomed together that one summer?
It was the only perk of being in the closet in 2003
And in the morning when we stopped talking to each other
And the day that I came back to find the door was locked
‘Cuz someone else was in there

[Chorus]
I should have known
I was your stepping stone
And just when I had learned to call it love
The match was thrown
Learn how to be alone
And just when I had learned to call it love
