It’s not ordinary
It’s not ordinary
The fact you are alive
is all thanks to somebody

You don’t need to believe
You don’t need to believe
Decide for yourself
Well then, rise up

If you want it
Look like you want it, oh
Don’t deceive yourself
Before it all disappears, oh

Your true self
copying someone else
You yourself don’t know
Nobody can show you

If you do the same thing
you can take relief so
It doesn’t have to be you
Hey, don’t get in my way

It’s okay to be weak
It’s okay to be easily wounded, oh
That’s who you are
That’s how you’re living, oh

You don’t have to overdo it
There’s no need to change
You can be just as you are, oh
What you hold dear
will go on changing but
it’s now or never, oh

If there’s something you want
Look like you want it, oh
Don’t deceive yourself
Before it all disappears, oh

It’s okay to be weak
It’s okay to be easily wounded, oh
That’s who you are
That’s how you’re living, oh
