[Verse 1]
All I wanted was normal
I wanted us happy
And photos of me
When I smile genuinely
I wanted to wake up one day
And feel the sun on my face
To put on my shoes and wash my hair when it's dirty
And not think too much about what I could be or do better

[Bridge]
I'm too sad to be polite
I play pretend that it's okay
That it's resolved
And I'm not getting old
I'm not getting older

[Chorus]
She wrote in my records that I could not meet her eye
And they write about how easy I am to understand
That my fingers are a little shaky
But I'm so clear and so straight

But they don't know how casual I am
But I'm still here again

[Verse 2]
And I worry about
What will happen in the summertime
When there's nothing to be sad about
And they don't turn on the street lights
Until 10 p.m
