Wallflower Waltz

Propped up against the gymnasium wall

Leaning with surface lament

Not one whispered word, nor crack of a smile

Emotions as solid cement

There's no need to sympathize

For kind and sure are those eyes

Are you getting scared, my dear?

Are you getting scared

To shyly compliment the mirror

To balance the compared?

Then falls one solitary tear

Oh, to be the stared

And stumble with the inflicted faults

While stepping the wallflower waltz

Held and pushed by unleashed desires

Tethered in self-sacrifice

Reluctantly charmed by being approached

But guarded by one's own device

There's no need to criticize

For kind and sure are those eyes

Are you getting scared, my dear?

Are you getting scared

To shyly compliment the mirror

To balance the compared?

Then falls one solitary tear

Oh, to be the stared

And stumble with the inflicted faults

While stepping the wallflower waltz
