I’m not exactly the “life of the party” type.

I know many of you aren’t either, because I’ve received countless “I know exactly what you mean” comments from fellow introverts. The last lyric to get this much feedback has to be Entirely, from way back in 1997.

They don’t know what they believe 
So we stare and nod as they think out loud 
Trying our best to fit in 
As we fight for breath in this stifling crowd 
And the time races by when you’re having some fun 
But it’s plodding along now at quarter to one 
As the night tries our patience we’re hitting a wall 
I slip off to the side like I’m taking a call to observe 

Extroverts at play 
Egos run amuck 
I’d like them well enough 
If they would just shut up 
But we will persevere 
By sheer force of will 
We’ll stoically endure 
This social overkill 

Tomorrow we’ll take the whole day 
To recuperate in a private place 
Sleeping or reading a book 
Our resilience now is our saving grace 
So just try to imagine, it’s not such a stretch 
I’m the life of the party and it is the death of me 
Here in my eyes you’re the belle of the ball 
With the hint of a smile you enchant more than all of the… 

Maybe someday this will 
Come to us more naturally but 
Until then we’ll have to pretend 

We’ll hone our acting skills 
Fake it ’til we make it baby 
Until then we’ll have to pretend.

There was a time in history 
Your next meal was a mystery 
If you were lucky you might catch a fish 
But we have Amazon now 
No need for brains or brawn now 
Your wish list to your door in just one click

Pointless productivity 
I sit behind a screen 
My fingers span the inches 
In a blaze of inactivity 
Captivity 
For hours every day 
I dare to call it work

Relentless innovation 
Requires concentration 
To thrive in this knowledge economy 
My digital creations 
Have no physical manifestation 
I deal in intellectual property

Our avatars 
In silhouette 
Addicted to 
The internet 
We type and type 
But never sweat

Our bellies stuffed 
Perpetually 
Defining sloth 
And gluttony 
We die too soon 
But live like kings

For now let's just enjoy it 
No reason to avoid it 
Who needs an extra gear to coast downhill? 
Succumb, my couch potato 
Adopt my humble credo 
And watch the world revolve while we sit still

Pointless productivity 
I sit behind a screen 
My fingers span the inches 
In a blaze of inactivity 
Creativity 
I exercise my mind 
And laugh to call it work.

I scan the nighttime sky 
Paralyzed by vertigo 
As my life spins out of control 
I spot the archer with his bow 
Whose constellation guards 
The celestial zodiac 
Human and horse 
Cause and effect 
Like an arrow to my back 

Sagittarius 
How did I get into this hopeless mess? 
Sagittarius 
Was it fate, or my own choice? 
It’s all there in the stars 
Venus and Mars 
Bruises and scars 

Do I reach for the stars 
Or do they reach out for me 
Drawing me in 
Luring me on 
With the pull of gravity 
I realize the stakes 
And it cuts me like a knife 
Without a will 
Without a voice 
What’s the meaning of my life? 

I confess to the crime 
Empty bottles of wine 
Purple eyeliner streaks 
Lipstick stains on the sheets 
And the smell of perfume 
Lingers still in the room 
On my tongue still the taste of regret 

You’ll be betrayed again 
By the destiny of man 
To be played out 
Again and again 
In a cruel eternal plan.
