See me reading your favorite book
See the potential for unlimited conversation
See me nearly fall off the train
See me laugh at myself
See me secretly die inside
See me
Maybe
I don't know
You must might see a miracle
Watch me try to impress a room full of people
Watch one joke work, and one joke tank
Watch me retreat to a corner
Watch me wish someone talked to me first
Watch me leave barely concealing how I hate leaving alone
Watch me
See what you see
And maybe
You just might see a miracle
Take me at my first word and my last chance
Take me with my happiest memory and my worst mistake
Take me with my track record and my demo tape
Take me before you take off
Take a good look before you go
Take it
Shake it up a bit
And if you hit it right
You just might see a miracle
I'm great at pretending I'm fine when I'm not
I'm great at taking on too much and hanging on too long
I'm great at breaking up good thoughts when they join in my head
I'm great at saying 'I'm great' 'I'm fine' 'I'm terrific'
I'm great at being specific when the details aren't defined
Don't mind me
Try finding me
And don't remind me I'm lost
Pay the cost
Play the game
Tame your domesticity
And you just might see
A miracle in me
And if you do
It'll be a miracle
