Lyrics
Normal
We got a hidden past
We got a hidden future
So all we got is right now
First, let?s make it last
We got a hidden past
We got a hidden future
So all we got is right now
First, let?s make it last
See why I?m as I am
See why I?m as I am
You got a painful past
But it?s a painless future
So why wait for the slow train
Take the rocket blast
See where I?m going
See where I?m growing
I wish I could take you in my memory
See the things that passed for normal in my life
Won?t you make my future
Help me lose the past
We could start right now
First, let's make it last
See who we are
Be who we are
See how we?re growing
Seeds that we?re sowing
I wish I could take you to the future
See the things that will be normal
I wish I could take your immediate future
Take your hand and make you normal in my life
Normal, normal, normal, normal, normal, normal
