Too Scared To Stand Out
She doesn't like makeup,
But she applies it the moment she wakes up.
She thinks fake lashes are painful,
But you'll find them glued with her eyes tearful.
She really loves her Gospel playlist,
But still pretends to have never heard the music of a Gospel artist.
She is too scared to stand out.
He is not a fan of soccer,
But he's trying to like it better.
He prefers his jeans on his waist,
But he still pulls them down with haste.
He'd love to pray before he eats,
But that would just earn him laughing fits.
He is too scared to stand out.
They like texting words in full,
But that only makes them seem uncool.
They'd love not to speak English,
But it's the language they've learned to cherish.
They miss going to church,
But, here, all they do is lurch.
They are too scared to stand out.
