Ordinary man

I tried to make it right, to keep up the fight, but the fight's not in my hands this time
Your eyes, by the firelight, make these sleepless nights so hard this time
Send me your lesson and answer my questions about what happens next
You'll never forget what you need to forfeit just to pass the test

I never wanted to be just an ordinary man, just an ordinary man
I never wanted to be just an ordinary man, just an ordinary man

I'm so weak from the pain I seek, from my dreams that have died
I'm on my knees and I'm begging please, don't let me inside

It's only your virtue that comes back to curse you and leave you astray
But what's the offense, dear, if you pay your rent here just to live another day

I never wanted to be just an ordinary man, just an ordinary man
I never wanted to be just an ordinary man, just an ordinary man

I never wanted to be just an ordinary man, just an ordinary man
I never wanted to be just an ordinary man, just an ordinary man
There's only a virtue that comes back to curse you and leave you astray
You'll never forget what you need to forfeit just to live another day

Let's go boys
