lyrics

The ordinary instant
Has its grip on me
The ordinary instant
Is every instant you'll ever see

Okay, but I just can't shake the weight of this one
Its tethered itself onto my legs
And it's holding me back
I cannot run
Back into the past where I think I belong

But the air smells fresher than yesterday
The air smells fresher than yesterday
And your arms hold me a little tighter
When they reach down to grab across my waist
So I guess in that sense
Everything is okay

Still with your head hung low
I hope that you know
That there's still a million normal moments
To surprise, and stun, and scare you
And it's so early for you to give up on them now
In a world so strange and sad as this one
It's sometimes okay to feel like you don't belong
What seems to be so strange and beautiful
There's lots of things you ought to know
But just can't seem to figure out

In a world so strange and sad as this one
It's sometimes okay to feel like you don't belong
What seems to be so strange and beautiful
There's lots of things you ought to know
But just can't seem to figure out
And really I think it's beautiful
To watch you learning as you go
Through each ordinary instant
