Oh, Wallflower

You’ve been staring a long, long time
From the edge of a steep hillside
And the sun is reflected by
The surface of a thousand rooftops
I could stay all night
Out of mind, out of sight
It’s a long way home
Will someone notice if I’m gone?
You’ve been standing by the red brick wall
In the corner of the paved schoolyard
Keep your eyes on the ground
While snowflakes are drifting by
And if I turn to stone
Maybe they’ll leave me alone
You can see it all
Oh, wallflower
(Wallflower)
I’ve been walking a long, long time
Through the colours of th shifting land
And my eyes are rflected by
The light from a thousand lives
And if I break in two
I am only you
Oh your sticks and stones
They will break my bones
