Normal
And she’s the girl who writes fires with her words
Singing at the lips of greatness
Kills confidence with a look
Crush organs with a flick of her wrist
And she’s the girl who removes her cloth shell each night
To find a fresh start in the morning
Lives free in that warm ultraviolet
And she’s the girl who doesn’t live wrapped up
In a cozy blanket of fear
Instead reaches for her own hand in darkened rooms
And leads herself to the edge of cliffs
To view
Not jump
And she’s the girl who can sleep like the dead
And still wake up in the morning
With a smile you get
From listening to clean vinyl
No scratches in sight
And she’s the girl with a lifeline that’s perfection
To her sweet ending

The smooth dance routine
Of a chess game
And she’s the girl who likes feeling low
Cause she knows tomorrow will be a day of highs
That’ll lead to infinity
And she’s the girl
I wish I could be
