i could have died,
maybe i should have died.
when i saw you walk inside.
and as you shut the door
i put my eyes back on the floor.
when all i really wanted was to look some more.

does a wallflower play,
or does a wallflower stay on his wall?

you see i live alone,
but i've made my happy home.
all my furniture is centered around my phone.
i'm waiting for a call,
my imaginary friends and all.
those who would never let me be taken by the fall.
does a wallflower know,
when it's time he outgrow his wall?
tell me does a wallflower know
when it's about time he outgrow his wall...

time and time and only time has feeling for me.
maybe father time will feel sorry for me.
i knew when there was time, when i knew it all.
why don't i ever leave my wall?
why don't i ever leave my wall?
why don't i ever leave my wall?
...i don't ever leave my wall.

you know that siren's getting louder,
and these people are starting to crowd in on me.
(all i smell and taste is garlic and gunpowder)
'cause i shot the bad guy dead -
but he got me in the head.
with the girl of my dreams
she's mentioning to me how much I've bled.

where does a wallflower go,
when their flowers get pulled from this wall?
oh and though she says I'm brave and bold,
she knows a flower cannot hold up a wall.
i can't hold up this wall any longer...
any longer
'cause all I have is time and time
and time
please some more time.
i think i'm over...
