Lyric More Than Shy

She always looks down like her eyes are little secrets
That cannot be told though she can t remember why
She only speaks loud when there s no one round to listen
And she will not laugh without cov ring her smile

Oh why? She asks why?
Tell me why can t someone see that I m more than shy?
Oh why? Why can t I?

She carries half a stone with her always in her pocket
It s rough on the edges but vibrant inside
She says to herself, I am just like this stone is
So why won t somebody take me by their side?

Oh why? She asks why?
Tell me why can t someone see that I m more than shy?
Oh why? Why can t I?

Why not start living this life I ve been given
Brilliance is nothing if you hold it inside
Why not start giving this life I ve been livin a try

She always has dreams of people with no faces
Who speak brilliant thoughts to themselves late at night
She read once in a book that all of these people
Are just pieces of her that she tries to hide

Oh why? She asks why?
Tell me why can t someone see that I m more than shy?
Oh why? Why don t I?
