I been wasting my days
good and reckless and true
I have danced in the dark at the edge of the water
swinging my hips at the black and the blue

and when you die will you be
surrounded by friends
will they pray for a heaven out loud
a hope that somehow they will see you again

and at the end of the day knowing not what it means
will you stand in the ashes building a flame for the rest of your dreams

And would you love could you love
to be ordinary
I know its hard but i can't see you trying
and would you love could you love
to be ordinary
cause I can't see you tryin now

and I see strangers at war
I see strangers at peace
still I hang my head in confusion
its always a choice thats been harder for me

and at the end of the day
knowing not what it means
will you stand in the ashes building a flame for the rest of your dreams

and would you love, could you love
to be ordinary
I know its hard but I can't see you trying
and would you love, could you love
to be ordinary
no I can't see you trying now

there's nobody left to hear me
I wish you could hear me now
there's nobody left to call
because you're not around

and would you love, could you love
to be ordinary
I know its hard but I can't see you trying
and would you love, could you love
to be ordinary
I know its hard but I can't see you trying

and would you love, could you love
to be ordinary
I know its hard but I can't see you trying
and would you love, could you love
to be ordinary
I know its hard but I can't see you trying
trying

when you die will you be surrounded by friends
will they pray for a heaven out loud
a hope that somehow they will see you again
