Normal

I've got my words and I've got my smile
Can take me far, a little while
But not too long, a mask can't last
My sociability may fade fast

I don't understand so why should you
No use investigating what and how I do
All I know is things seem better in a way
But at the same time, I'm off much worser today

How come we never notice anything
How come when we see you, you are well
Well, you won't see me the weeks when I'm hiding
Regenerating in my own shell, hell

Handicapped, some say
Psychologically not ok
But how come you look so normal, normal
Arms, legs and a heart
And you seem really really smart
Nothing's wrong with you, you're normal, normal
But a broken heart and head are hard to mend

I've got my hurt and my guitar
Combine the two and you've got a star
But a star to be, can't follow her fate
If she can't even stand straight

I try to say no, don't you push me through
I can't live, the way you do
I need space and I need time
I need a place to call mine

How come you seem strong and so able
How come we all don't have a clue
Well the days I experience in silence
My good days I save up, to spend with you

Handicapped, some say
Psychologically not ok
But how come you look so normal, normal
Arms, legs and a heart
And you seem really really smart
Nothing's wrong with you, you're normal, normal
Handicapped, some say
Psychologically not ok
But how come you look so normal, normal
Arms, legs and a heart
And you seem really really smart
Nothing's wrong with you, you're normal, normal
But a broken heart and head are hard to mend
