Normal Life

Red Telephone

Compositor: Declan Andrews

I lead a normal life
It doesn’t hurt to lead a normal life
I do my work and never break
What’s the point?

I lead a normal life
A familiar dream nags at me each night
I wake at eight
My back still aches
I never break

No one sees me
I sleep through the noise
Don’t say you now need me
I won’t complain
No one notices
I'm just a number
Never meant a thing

I drown in city lights
It doesn’t pay to breathe the city life
My smile’s polite
'Cause I'm alright
It’s what they like

No one sees me
I sleep through the noise
Don’t say you now need me
I won’t complain
No one notices
I'm just a number
Never meant to think
