From the recording Reset to Factory Specs
Memory: I was afraid if I disappeared for a while where no one could find me that when I surfaced I’d be forgotten. But I dove anyway, beneath the waterline to incubate.
Lesson: Take the time you need to heal. As long as it takes, it’s yours to take.
Lyrics
The warmth of solitary
In a winter of sound
I can feel connected
Even with no one around
The swarm of overwhelming
In a flurry of choice
I can feel rejected
Even by my own voice
Even by my own voice
Even by my own voice
But circumstance has smiled
On the introvert today
For once it isn't all about
Drive drive drive drive play
The stage can wait for me to say
I'm okay, I'm okay
The kindnesses of strangers
In a vacuum of space
I can feel beloved
Even when I hide my face
The mindlessness of doing
In a void of healthy thought
I can feel unloved
Even when I know I'm not
Even when I know I'm not
Even when I know I'm not
But circumstance has smiled
On the introvert today
For once it isn't all about
Drive drive drive drive play
The stage can wait for me to say
I'm okay, I'm okay
