Why

Doesn't he hear my heart beat

Why can't he read what goes through my mind
Expressing frustration that the person cannot understand the thoughts and feelings.
I wonder why

I wonder why

Now I'm not the kind of girl
Asserting a certain personality type, not easily categorized as shy.
That you would call shy
Suggesting that the person may not be perceived as shy based on their character.
But if I told you I'm brave

I would probably lie
Acknowledging a tendency to lie about personal qualities like bravery.
It's all in your hands baby can't you see

Nothing is ever for free
Suggesting that achieving something requires effort or a cost.
I wonder why

If I told him the truth
