Lyrics
ALMOST NORMAL
(Smith)
I want to be like you
I’m tired of being me
I want to change the truth
I don’t like what I see
I want to disappear
To somewhere far away
I want to shed this fear
I want to live for each new day
Still I have to keep on going
Imagination’s flowing
There’s something here worth knowing
Tonight I’m almost normal
Yes I have to keep this going
A cruel wind is blowing
But something good is showing
Tonight I’m almost normal
Many people do not care
Where I am coming from
Many people fail to see
The things I touch upon
If they could only understand
The struggles I endure
They’d see we are the same
They’d see the reasons for it all
I want to re-invent
This face that’s getting old
This life it came and went
My story must be told
I want to be like you
I’m tired but I’m ok
I’d rather go with dignity
Than kicking all the way.
