Normal lyrics

[ELMER]
All those grudges
That I held like some precious metal
I don't need them anymore
All those slights
Lingering memories of fights
And the aching, tragic facts I can't ignore
They don't mean nothin' anymore
Like normal people, not like I was before
Don't know what I wanna be
Just as long as it ain't me
Like normal people

I used to wake up
Every day, an uneasy feeling
Knew that I would have to leave
Family ties
Just another pack of lies
And I couldn't find a reason to believe

[ELMER & ERIK]
Here in the West
I start again
Like normal people who falter now and then

[ELMER]
Man content with what he's got
Even if he'll be forgot
Like normal people
[ELMER & ERIK]
And here
In a normal prairie town
On a normal, dusty street
There's a normal frontier gal
And she
She'll be waitin' there for me
To be as normal as we please
Just how normal can we be?

An honest man
That you can trust
Like normal people who soon return to dust

[ELMER]
I'll stand here on the ground
And watch the world go 'round
Like normal people

[ELMER & ERIK]
And I
Could be normal, in a way
Like a normal man would be
What a normal man would say
And she
She'll be waitin' there for me
To be as normal as we please
Just how normal can we be?
