Ordinary Girl

Papermoon


When I was just  eight years old
My mother came to me and that´s  what she told me:
"You´re  somehow different, I don´t know why,
but if you  want you´ll reach the sky" 

I grew up, searching my  place
but soon I felt I was from outer  space
What I needed was  a friend
but no  one really could understand me 

I whish  I was an ordinary girl
living  in an ordinary world
playing all the ordinary games  people play
why  can´t I be the same 

I came to  school, felt like emprisoned
the teachers  taught me things I didn´t want to know
Felt like  a fool, couldn´t find the reason
to learn ´bout algebra instead of Marilyn  Monroe 

When I went out and everyone  was partyin´
was  only me who felt like in the wrong place
I always wanted to be like  everybody
with average thoughts and  an average face 

I whish I  was an ordinary girl...
