Wallflower Original Off-Broadway Cast of We Are The Tigers (Ft. Lauren Zakrin & Wonu Ogunfowora)

[CAIRO]
Nobody remembers fourth grade Riley
She is harmless and shy and will never speak up
'Cause she's scared to be wrong
Riley is a wallflower
The type of little kid who gets paralyzed with fear
When she gets called on

But who had your back when you had a heart attack
'Cause the kids would start to laugh
When you st-st-st-st-stuttered
It was me who decided you could be
So much more than they could see
If I never saved you, w-w-w-w-what would you have done?
You would be no one

So forgive me for doing what's best for you
So forgive me for trying to
Make this easier
I'll always be on your team
You are nothing
You have nothing
Without me

[RILEY]
Everyone remembers sophomore Cairo
Starting fights in the halls
Mouthing off in each class
'Cause she'll never be wrong
Anything but wallflower
The type of high school kid who is rarely seen at parties
With her pants on
