Lyrics:

Verse 1

Some people say I’m a miserable bastard
They want to know if I’m having a good time
The thing with me is that I don’t always show it
My disposition is that way inclined
I go to parties and hide in the bathroom
Wonder if coming was a mistake
Don’t get me wrong yeah I’m glad I’m invited
Oh now and then I just need a break

Chorus

That’s why I need some alone time
So I can clear out my mind
Used to think I was faulty inside
Now I know I am alright
Just the quiet type

Verse 2

When I walk down the street people greet me
Saying I should turn that frown upside
‘Cheer up mate it might never happen’
‘Mind your business get out of my way’
‘What’s your problem are you having a bad day?’
‘Look it’s not personal I’m really OK’

Chorus

That’s why I need some alone time
So I can clear out my mind
Used to think I was faulty inside
Now I know I am alright
Just the quiet type

Sometimes it’s cool to be quiet
Sometimes there’s nothing to say
Enjoy the moment in silence
Sometimes that’s my kind of day

Verse 3

It’s not a bug it’s a feature
‘Cause I’m somewhat of a dreamer
And now I do my own thing
And people listen when sing

Chorus

That’s why I need some alone time
So I can clear out my mind
Used to think I was faulty inside
Now I know I am alright
Just the quiet type
