lyrics

Verse 1

I do all my crying on the inside,
Do all my speeches in the private eye,
I am the sole custodian of the solo thought,
But it hurts me more than you could ever know.

Verse 2

I cannot be what I am not,
Could never shout it from the rooftops,
But do not take my quiet side for a quiet mind,
Coz it's racing more than it could ever show.

Chorus

I'm an introvert,
Nothing better, but no worse,
And I'm an introvert,
I enjoy things in my own way and I'll say what I can say,
And the rest is simply locked away.

Verse 3

All these things I've left behind,
All those people on whom I relied,
But in the end I must take hold of my own soul,
My ups and downs are no one's but my own.

Verse 4

I cannot try to pretend,
Could never fit in with my friends,
For whilst they need the noise and flare, my core is never shared,
It's a place that I return to when I'm low.

Chorus

I'm an introvert,
Nothing better, but no worse,
And I'm an introvert,
I enjoy things in my own way and I'll say what I can say,
And the rest is simply locked away.
