It would be easy not to try
To play it safe and never come to life
I feel my heart beating, sounds like a countdown
I know I'm ready now, but I don't make a sound
Don't make a sound
What are you waiting for? (x2)
[Chorus]
Oh it's all or nothing now
There's no time for later
We were not made, we were not born to be ordinary
Oh they'll remember your name
They'll remember your face
Shout it loud, shout it loud
We are not ordinary
You speak in colours that never fade
Make us believe that you're never afraid
You say you're happy here - who are you fooling?
Slow motion parody of all the things that make you human
That make you human
What are you waiting for? (x2)
[Chorus]
Oh it's all or nothing now
There's no time for later
We were not made, we were not born to be ordinary
Oh they'll remember your name
They'll remember your face
Shout it loud, shout it loud
We are not ordinary
What are you waiting for? (x7)
[Chorus]
Oh it's all or nothing now
There's no time for later
We were not made, we were not born to be ordinary
Oh they'll remember your name
They'll remember your face
Shout it loud, shout it loud
We are not ordinary

Who You Are

Psychedelic, razor sharp
Captivating from the start
But doubt can fool you and consume you
And make you lose your sense of who
There's a spark inside of you
And they can see it shining through
Don't let them tell you what you can't do
Don't ever let them tell you who, who
Who you are...
[Chorus]
Get out of my head, you're out of your mind
If you think I'm down and out this time
I won't go out without a fight
A fight, my man you're out of your mind (x2)
A butterfly beneath the glass
Imprisoned, going nowhere fast
If you don't use it then you'll lose it
I only hope you're not too late
Ooooh
[Chorus]
Get out of my head, you're out of your mind
If you think I'm down and out this time
I won't go out without a fight
A fight, my man you're out of your mind (x2)
Psychedelic razor sharp
Captivating from the start
Don't let them tell you what you can't do
Don't ever let them tell you who
Who you are

I had always thought I was immune to you
At this moment I am more curious than certain
More curious than certain
Your poison runs beneath my skin,
I am your willing victim
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
I reminded you of brighter days
Nights you cannot cope with, you shiver in the dark
The last thing on your mind's the first thing when you wake up
I know you better than you think
You loved her first, you loved her first
And that's ok but it hurts
I'll fake a brave face, I'll tell you I'm fine
I'll hide with a smile you won't know is a lie
You won't know it's a lie, you loved her first...
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
You'll never know how much it hurts
I'll take the bullet for us both

Eyes For You

The very definition of an hourglass figure
Yeah she'll cock your gun but then she'll pull the trigger
I've seen you with her, I can't figure
Out what the hell this is really about
I'm familiar with her Peculiar ways
She's a messed up tramp with no emotional tact
It's a matter of fact, she's a one of a kind
And she'll steal him away in the blink of an eye
I can't believe she'd be so mean
I can see that she's always on your mind
Now this sounds familiar, I'm one in a million
Are you really serious?
[Chorus]
Oh girl when will you see
He never wanted me
He only ever had Eyes for You (x2)
Excuse me while I rest my brain
Trying to figure you out is driving me insane
Cos clearly you're afraid of my
Friendship with him but I don't know why
It's ridiculous, I'm getting sick of this now
Why'd you think I'd want to steal him anyhow?
It's a matter of fact, he's a one of a kind
And he's been in love with you for a long long time
Why'd you believe I'd be so mean?
Can't you see that, that you're always on his mind?
Now this sounds familiar, I'm one in a million
Are you really serious?
[Chorus]
Oh girl when will you see
He never wanted me
He only ever had Eyes for You (x2)
Now this sounds familiar, I'm one in a million
Are you really serious?
[Chorus]
Oh girl when will you see
He never wanted me
He only ever had Eyes for You (x2)
