No Ordinary Life
Embracing Life Beyond Norms
Lyrics
You've been on the ordinary drugs
You've been using typical drugs
I can see that you've been tryin' to make it on your own
I can see your attempt to navigate life independently
It's all you've ever known, that time moves slowly
Your life has been characterized by a slow-moving, routine existence
Always such a solitary one
You've been a loner or someone who prefers solitude
You've been having ordinary fun
You've been engaging in normal, everyday pleasures
I can see that all you've ever planned was getting old
Your main focus has been on aging; it's what you've been advised to do
It's all that you were told, that life's a movie
You were told that life is like a movie
Falling into solitary love
Falling into love that is characterized by solitude
If you look up you can see it in the sky
By looking up, you can witness something extraordinary in the sky
Heavenly colors that paralyze the laws inside your mind
The heavenly colors in the sky can captivate and immobilize your thoughts
From a million years gone by
Refers to a distant past, suggesting a connection to ancient times
No ordinary life
Life is not ordinary; it holds something special
Everybody knows that you're hurting
People are aware that you're going through difficulties
Serving your time behind the curtain
You're enduring a challenging period behind the scenes
Open up your doors and your windows
Suggests opening up emotionally and sharing your life
We could live a life so simple
A call to embrace a simpler, more fulfilling life together
Everybody knows that you're hurting
Reiteration that others recognize your struggles
Serving your time behind the curtain
You're still facing challenges behind closed doors
Open up your doors and your windows
The invitation to open up emotionally is repeated
We could live a life so simple
A reminder that a simple and shared life is possible
You've been on the ordinary drugs
Similar to line 1, reiterating the use of ordinary drugs
I can see that you've been tryin' to make it on your own
A repetition of the struggle to make it independently
It's all you've ever known, that time moves slowly
Reiteration of the slow-paced nature of life you've experienced
Always such a solitary one
Emphasizes the preference for solitude or being alone
If you look up you can see it in the sky
Repetition of the idea that looking up reveals something extraordinary
Heavenly colors that paralyze the laws inside your mind
Heavenly colors in the sky can captivate and immobilize thoughts
From a million years gone by
Another reference to a distant past, emphasizing the timeless nature
No ordinary life
Reiteration that life is not ordinary; it holds something special
No ordinary life
Final emphasis that life is extraordinary, not mundane
