Wallflower Waltz Songtext

von K.D. Lang

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
