Solo Quiero Ser Normal

I just want to be normal
Like everyone else
Learning to live by pretending

I must start at the beginning
Long before I almost threw myself off that cliff
The story of my riddle
It begins with the absence of that love from parents towards a child

I don't blame him, he did what he could
He played his silent role in his silent films
I don't blame her, she was just a learner
But leaving a mark is not the same as leaving a huge scar

If you already come with factory defects, it is noticeable
Since you were little you didn't fit in anywhere
Tell me, how can you not have a broken heart when everyone rejects you because you're the weird kid?

But whose fault is it?
Are you your instincts that you learn or maybe they are instilled in you?
Standing before my reflection thinking about what they will say
Screaming at the mirror once again

I just want to be normal
Like everyone else
Happy on Instagram
Pretending how well I'm doing
Sometimes I just want to see what I can fit in
Feeling that I can also be one more
(I just want to be normal)

I must continue where I left off
The poor baby has grown tired of asking why?
So many stab wounds destroy your innocence
And in the end you replace pain with indifference

Even though it hurts me, this is the reality
Loyalty often has an expiration date
If you seek to find me you may get lost
In a heart of sand covered with a thousand stones

I feel like a witch with her crystal ball
A compass needle pointing to the end
I feel that message you write and delete
A journey with no more luggage than a letter and a rope

Packing your bags doesn't mean running away from your life
Even flying to another country won't get you away from your fears
Buying new clothes doesn't cover your wounds
And changing your profile picture isn't starting from scratch

Nobody asks you for consent
To bring you into this world
To be flesh and bones without feelings
And to wake up every day without knowing if it will be the last

Welcome to this unrehearsed play
Do you want to make your own way or follow the herd?
And here I am, again without a plan
Screaming at the mirror once again

I just want to be normal
Like everyone else
Happy on Instagram
Pretending how well I'm doing
And sometimes I just want to see what I can fit in
Feeling that I can also be one more
(I just want to be normal)

I must end at the beginning
Understanding my foundations to continue building
It's not where I'm going anymore, it's where I come from
Tears, sweat and blood, here is your canvas

Sharing my lyrics made me realize one thing
That the world is full of fucking broken people
Thanks for not jumping
So be so strong and show everyone that it's okay
Not being normal
