The Lyrical Genesis: There are times when it feels like the whole world is full of people who talk but don’t listen, who stand near but never see. This song comes from that realization and from the quiet strength that follows it. That even when the room forgets you, there’s someone who will not: yourself. For an INFJ, learning to trust your own voice can be the difference between being swallowed by loneliness and standing tall in it. This is that reminder: when all else fails, you can turn to you. *** Intro: I look around and it's crowded A smattering of chattering fools A lot of long faces with Downcast eyes....... Verse: What good are people if they don't care If what they have shines while leaving you to stare "Look at me!" they say, Tell me what you see ... I see Bridge: Lumbering manequins that look like me Wrapped up in themselves while I Starve, Yearn, For ... Verse: A bit of your eyes and ears Some tears, Some cheers, For who I am in here. I miss the deep and abiding assurance That I'm not just a hologram Of wispy dreams..... gone.... Spoken: "You sound interested in being interested But when it comes to recall You draw a blank, I shrug and look away...." Chorus: Who can you turn to when No one will abide? Who's on you're side? Taking it in stride? Well ... it's you. Verse: "Be your own best friend and champion!" That's good advice, for every living life. There is always someone you can count on When life grows cold, lonely and cruel Trust yourself to come through! (Come on through!) Bridge You can do it, be true to you You're the one, you can be just fine! Verse: In the end, there's just you again Leaving the way you came, except ... Now, you have a friend, It's You. Chorus: Who can you turn to when No one will abide? Who's on you're side? Taking it in stride? Who can you turn to when No one will see? Not one will agree or listen? Whose on your side, taking it in stride? Well ... it's you. Outro: Now, you have a friend, It's You.
