ADMIRATION FROM AFAR

(Hook – Singing) You think they don’t see you, but we do We're just afraid we’ll never be enough for you You think you're plain, but baby, you stop time That's why we all freeze when you walk by It’s not that they don’t care, it’s that they’re scared You're more than pretty — you’re rare And I wish I had the words to say But you're too beautiful to look away (Verse 1 – Singing) You sit alone, scroll your phone like no one sees you But I’ve been lookin’ every day just to breathe you You wear your hair like a poem you don't read Eyes like thunder trapped in something soft and sweet You bite your lip when you overthink your worth Don’t you know the silence proves how much it hurts? Every guy just stares then fades to black 'Cause you look like a dream they can’t come back from that It’s not that you're invisible — you shine But stars like you blind the rest of the sky You say, "No one ever wants me" — that’s a lie They want you too much, that’s why they don’t try I’ve written love in my head a thousand times But you’re the kind of beauty that rewrites lines So I sit back, scared to let it show While you're wonderin’ why no one ever says hello (Hook – Singing) You think they don’t see you, but we do We're just afraid we’ll never be enough for you You think you're plain, but baby, you stop time That's why we all freeze when you walk by It’s not that they don’t care, it’s that they’re scared You're more than pretty — you’re rare And I wish I had the words to say But you're too beautiful to look away (Verse 2 – Singing) You wear sweaters like you're tryna disappear But girl, your presence hits louder than you hear You think you're quiet, but you silence rooms The way your kindness makes the coldest people bloom I’ve watched you wipe away your own tears fast Like strength is hiding what you're feeling when it lasts You say, "I must be too weird or too plain" But baby, you’re lightning they can’t explain They don’t flirt ‘cause they feel out of place You're Mona Lisa with a mystery in your face You make boys feel like school again — unsure Like crushes that hurt ‘cause they’re too pure I wish you'd see what we all do But you only see the space around you And I’m still too scared to let you know That I’ve been falling since the first hello (Hook – Singing) You think they don’t see you, but we do We're just afraid we’ll never be enough for you You think you're plain, but baby, you stop time That's why we all freeze when you walk by It’s not that they don’t care, it’s that they’re scared You're more than pretty — you’re rare And I wish I had the words to say But you're too beautiful to look away (Verse 3 – Singing) You say love skips you like you’re not worth trying But if you knew the hearts you leave crying Behind closed lips and missed chances You're the spark that ends all glances They stare, then break their gaze in shame Like lookin’ at you would make them insane But it’s not rejection, it’s too much awe But it’s not rejection, it’s too much awe You're the kind of beauty that makes men pause I swear, if you only knew your power You’d see the fear in every silent hour It’s not that you're not enough, you’re too much Too lovely to touch, too sacred to rush You're not ignored, you’re just held high Like something too rare for an average guy And if I ever get the nerve to speak It’ll be the day I finally feel worthy
