Wallflower is a song from studio album “Wallflowers” released in 2021 by The band Jinjer. As an introvert, when I first heard that song I couldn’t stop listening to it. The lyrics depicted exactly what I was going through and by doing so made me feel a lot better.
The lyrics are:
Stay in, stay in, you can feel like home
Breathe in, it’s a place where you belong
Where no one, no one, no one does you wrong
Where you can lick your wounds
You are people avoiding people
And fall in love with solitude
The chances go to zero
I’m a guest in my own skin
I take it off and be myself
And the waves hit me hard
So I climb into my shell
To lick my wounds again
Misunderstood and proud
In fear of saying something wrong
Is getting empty, is getting empty
Getting empty emptier
And I don’t really wish for
Really wish for new ones
My batteries are low
This life is a lockdown
I gotta go home
My batteries are low
That’s what it’s all about
I hated that from the beginning
Turning molehills into mountains
I feel the pressure building
Or jump over the wall
And say hello to the sick, sick world?
My batteries are low
This life is a lockdown
I gotta go home
My batteries are low
That’s what it’s all about
That’s what it’s all about
Tatiana Shmayluk singer of Jinjer stated:
“The song is about introverts, like me. The old title was “An Introvert”, but you can agree that this is very plain and straightforward, with zero character. But then my husband told me there’s a word in English—wallflower—that means a shy person who stands near the wall at parties, and no one wants to dance with this person. I thought this was a very romantic and poetic word, so I wanted to use it for this song and for the whole album, eventually”
