[Verse 1]

When I'm on my own

Before I'm dead, but while I'm grown

I think I might skip town

When I'm at the school

Words and colours, dye and tool

I may up and go away

[Pre-Chorus]

You can come but you’re not with me

You’re nearby me at best

I'm alone by definition

When you leave I rest

Yeah I'm back at peace

Living easy

Oh the introvert I'll stay

[Chorus]

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

[Verse 2]

Yeah I'll stare at my feet

Where the flowers bloom and the air smells sweet

And the grass grows

I don't need from you

Beauty's in no eye that I hold to

I’ve seen the blues and the greys on the screen

[Pre-Chorus]

You can come but you're not with me

You're nearby me at best

I'm alone by definition

When you leave I rest

Yeah I'm back at peace

Livin' easy

Oh the introvert I'll stay

[Chorus]

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

[Pre-Chorus]

You can listen, but not with me

You're nearby me at best

Here is restitution

It's safety upon the nest

Yeah I'm back at peace

Living easy

Oh the introvert I'll stay

[Chorus]

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la

Sha la la la la la la
