mxmtoon Lyrics

"wallflower"

Maybe there's a part of me that wants to be alone
Maybe there's a part of me that's looking for a home
Searching for a place to be, don't wanna leave a trace
I'm tryna start my life again so please forget my face

I don't wanna stand out
I don't wanna stand out
Live my life in a wallflower garden
With my friends and the fickle hearted
I don't wanna stand out
I don't wanna stand out
No one told me when I started
Now I'm wishing I could hide it
I don't wanna stand out
Oh, oh, oh

I could sit and stay outside and watch the thunder clouds
Counting on those raindrops, give me roots into the ground
Never thought I'd be the one to say there's something wrong
Can I call and tell you that I don't wanna be alone

But I don't wanna stand out
I don't wanna stand out
Live my life in a wallflower garden
With my friends and the fickle hearted
I don't wanna stand out
I don't wanna stand out
No one told me when I started
Now I'm wishing I could hide it
I don't wanna stand out
Oh, oh, oh

Why should I go out and change what I'm supposed to be
I know this song is sad but you can sing along with me
I don't wanna stand out
I don't wanna stand out
Live my life in a wallflower garden
With my friends and the fickle hearted
I don't wanna stand out
I don't wanna stand out
No one told me when I started
Now I'm wishing I could hide it
I don't wanna stand out
Oh, oh, oh
I don't wanna stand out
Oh, oh, oh

Mxmtoon said of "Wallflower", "At the beginning of my journey with music, I actually approached releasing my songs on the internet because I thought no one would listen to me. There was comfort in the anonymity, in thinking that I could shout into a void of people with no one to shout back at me. I got rather lucky though, and people found the art I was making. I wouldn't change a thing in how my life has happened, but there are days where I crave backing into a wall and fading away as I watch the world go by. I think introverts can relate to this feeling of wanting to disappear and finding comfort in the shadows of the world. 'Wallflower' is for those who get overwhelmed on occasion by the realities of our world, and sometimes need to take a step back and breathe before they brave the storm again."
