Extroverts Introverts
When Im on my own I see clearly
When Im on my own I see myself
You have to make space for that journey
People always want to help you
But its hard to let them in
Its hard to let them in
Its real enough for me
Feels like the knives upon my feet
Sharpening up all that they can take away from my mind
Do I modify my behaviour
Make a little system out of it
To make me seem so OK?
Do I try to change my peculiars
Or do I let them grow
Into something?
Leaders and introverts gathered together and pushing themselves to save the ship
Leaders and introverts meeting together and pushing each other back home again
Do I qualify, just for a time, to be someone?
Do I qualify? Not by your standard or mine
Policemen and introverts pushing together they become the same thing
Extroverts, introverts pushing together, you wish that you both could be each other
The flame is upside-down again
Is upside-down again
Is upside-down
Extroverts, introverts working together becoming the same old thing
Crosses and diamonds in circles and shining out of them
