Whenever things get more than I can manage
I return to my shell and hide away
And won't appear again until I'm happy
And that may take forever and a day
Whenever I feel blue, I walk in silence
And no-one hears my footsteps as I go
And only when my confidence rekindles
Will I reveal myself and start the show
Whenever loneliness begins to mock me
And deep anxiety flows through my veins
I strive to be the first to smile at nothing
And see the trials of life as welcome gains
