Back Row Seat

Lyrics

Verse 1
I walk in late
Find the back row seat
Hands in my sleeves
Try to look complete

Everyone talking
My name tastes strange
I smile too quick
Like I could change

Pre-Chorus
My chest gets loud
My face goes red
I know the room
But lose my head

One more step
And I might shake
Say my name soft
For my sake

Chorus
Hold me through the room
I’m not made of stone
Hold me through the room
I don’t want alone
Hands in my pocket
Heart in a storm
Hold me through the room
Till I feel warm

Verse 2
At the corner table
I count the cups
Read every look
Like I’m not enough

I’ve got a laugh
I save for rain
But in that crowd
It won’t come out the same

Pre-Chorus
My chest gets loud
My face goes red
I know the room
But lose my head

One more step
And I might shake
Say my name soft
For my sake

Chorus
Hold me through the room
I’m not made of stone
Hold me through the room
I don’t want alone
Hands in my pocket
Heart in a storm
Hold me through the room
Till I feel warm

Bridge
If I go quiet
Don’t let me drift
Just stay close by
And give me this

A little room
A little time
A little grace
To cross the line

Chorus
Hold me through the room
I’m not made of stone
Hold me through the room
I don’t want alone
Hands in my pocket
Heart in a storm
Hold me through the room
Till I feel warm
