Introvert Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's nothing there that wasn't already there before
The rubbing brings burning and I'll themed sits
I pull on my insides to distract intellect
An inch away from ever saying anything
An itch, a pain I'll never say anything
I think on thoughts too long until they run their course
An inch away from ever saying anything
An itch, a pain I'll never say anything
I hush, I hush, I'll always shut up, I hush
I watch and stay inside
To speak would be not me, a thief, a lie
An inch away from ever saying anything
An itch, a pain I'll never say anything
The song "Introvert" by the band Still Woozy deals with the internal struggles that an introvert experience in a world that values extroverted qualities. The lyrics convey a sense of inner turmoil as the singer describes the feeling of having a hole in their head and leaking out onto the floor. The line "There's nothing there that wasn't already there before" suggests that these negative feelings are not new, that they've always been present but are only now becoming visible.
The next few lines describe the physical symptoms that come with this emotional stress - the burning sensation and the need to pull on one's insides to distract from intellectual thought. The singer is trying to escape from their own mind and the pressure to conform to societal expectations.
The chorus, "An inch away from ever saying anything, an itch, a pain I'll never say anything," highlights the difficulty that introverts face in expressing themselves. They're always on the verge of saying something, but the pain and discomfort of speaking up is too great.
The final lines of the song express the desire to remain silent and not take part in the world around them - speaking would not be authentic, it would be a lie. This song speaks to anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed or anxious in social situations and struggles with expressing their true selves.
