The Introvert Rag

Robert James

The verse and the chorus are pretty much the same thing except the chorus is louder and heavier. I consider that a gimmick and a bit of a cheat, but I very often really like the way it works out. Shoot me.

The lyrics are about being afraid of everything. Being alone in the crowded room. Basically me.

The guitars are all ES-335

you think you know someone
but you are wrong
you feel a part of it
but you don’t belong

you’re a part of the crowd
but you’re all alone
you don’t fit in with them
everything unknown

pull it together
figure it out
maybe next time

you’re gonna go for it
but they have deaf ears
crawl back into your hole
for a few more years

break the chains
defy cliche
take the pains
come what may
