Rock and roll love song

I stand in the corner
(alone in a group,
a throng, a crowd of boys and girls)

It starts in my feet-

beat
beat

beat
beat

in the soles
and hollow heels
of the boots I wore
to hide
my coming alone.

Bass, then.

Singing kicks in.

But it's the drums that
I feel in hollow heels
resetting the beats of my heart.
