lyrics

A return to normalcy is all we ask
What came and went was just the past
But the typical is not made to last
The present is a dividing line between what had happened
And what one wants
A return to normalcy is all we ask
Pleading cannot create a state
That someone makes but cannot sustain
A return to normalcy is a return to impossibility
An average life pays the bills but lacks the thrills you need to live
A normal life is a cheap routine that you buy on sale for a buck fifteen
Where frugality is a necessity to live a life of empty luxury
But the uncomfortable can be wonderful
If you live your life with a glass half full
And you drink it down ‘til your sorrows drown
And you swim away on the salty waves
And the water heals all your open wounds
At the clinic of the self-marooned
And as you look up from the depths of you
And become what you always knew
An experiment that you underwent that was meant to be
For time was spent learning all there was to know
Without ever stooping down below to see what lies underneath
Because it only wants to shake your teeth
So you let the cold air run its course
And embrace the path as a tour de force
That warms you up as you run along
And fixes all you thought was wrong
And you finally see there was nothing wrong
There is nothing wrong
