​normal Lyrics by ClawWasTaken

algorithm

2022

[Chorus 1]
Cause that's just the way that it is
But it's not the way that it has to be
I wanna do it different this time
But it has to be the way that I need

I wanna be normal
Don't wanna play pretend
I wanna be formal
Don't wanna be just friends

I wanna be mortal
So that I can just die
I wanna be sort of
Better so I might try

I just wanna be normal...
I just wanna be normal...

[Verse 1]
I know that I've been bad and everybody hates me
But I can change, have you seen me lately?
It is getting harder to annihilate the act
But for the right one I'd take off the mask

It's sorta nice knowing that they only hate thе fake one
If they knеw the real me, then I might've been done
You make it easy, but it's hard to just trust
If they coulda killed me, then they woulda crushed us

[Chorus 2]
Cause that's just the way that it is
But it's not the way that it has to be
I wanna do it different this time
But it has to be the way that I need

I wanna be normal
Don't wanna play pretend
I wanna be formal
Don't wanna be just friends

I wanna be mortal
So that I can just die
I wanna be sort of
Better so I might try

I just wanna be normal...
I just wanna be normal...

[Verse 2]
Behind the scenes I've always been a good chap
If I'm in the spotlight then I just might snap
It's not for attention, I do it out of defense
But now you can see what I'm up against

The public is fickle when you're dealing with opinion
Name the things I haven't done, there's at least a million
At least I'm transparent and I ain't talkin George Bluth
Cause I'm too honest when I only speak the truth

[Chorus 3]
Cause that's just the way that it is
But it's not the way that it has to be
I wanna do it different this time
But it has to be the way that I need

I wanna be normal
Don't wanna play pretend
I wanna be formal
Don't wanna be just friends

I wanna be mortal
So that I can just die
I wanna be sort of
Better so I might try

I just wanna be normal...
I just wanna be normal...
