lyrics

Normal

i’m no good at normal
once the pen falls from my hand
hamstrung by the shrapnel
so far from what i planned

i’m no good at normal
best somewhere in between
pulled to look beyond this life
down holes that might have been

it was never easy
the games they seem to play
i create another world
that saves me every day

i’m no good at normal
so much seems sad and cruel
i don’t sew or golf or trek
but words can bring renewal

i’m no good at normal
i camp beyond the town
waiting in the desert calm
for winds to blow us down

chorus

i’m no good at normal
i envy those who are
then i trap another bolt
more lightning in a jar

it was never easy
the games they seem to play
i create another world
that saves me every day
