Brandi Carlile
Next to Normal
[Verse 1]
I've lost some friends along the way
Laughing at the wrong times
Saying things too straight
I don't want to die
Just trying to be myself
When everyone's the same
It's time to separate yourself

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought that I was off
I was just mistaken
Turns out, I wasn't crazy at all
I just had some walls up
That needed breaking (Ooh, ooh)

[Chorus]
When I'm close to you, I'm next to normal
I feel immortal
I'm high without the paranoia (Ooh, ooh)
When I'm close to you, I'm next to normal
I feel immortal
I'm high without the paranoia
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha-ha, ha)
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
[Verse 2]
So sick and tired of words I lost
All of this translation
I was overcompensating
I should have known
That they weren't in for the hang
I guess they couldn't picture
How I don't fit in thе frame

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought that I was off
I was just mistaken
Turns out, I wasn't crazy at all
I just had some walls up
That needеd breaking
I think I know who I'm gonna call (Ooh, ooh)

[Chorus]
When I'm close to you, I'm next to normal
I feel immortal
I'm high without the paranoia (Ooh, ooh)
When I'm close to you, I'm next to normal
I feel immortal
I'm high without the paranoia (Ooh, ooh)
When I'm close to you, I'm next to normal
I feel immortal
I'm high without the paranoia (Ooh, ooh)
[Interlude]
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Chorus]
When I'm close to you, I'm next to normal
I feel immortal
I'm high without the paranoia (Ooh, ooh)
When I'm close to you, I'm next to normal
I feel immortal
I'm high without the paranoia (Ooh, ooh)
When I'm close to you, I'm next to normal
I feel immortal
I'm high without the paranoia
