Once In a While...

You know how
I lose myself in thought
Or drift away
Sometimes feeling caught
I’d rather dodge the fights
Just want a bit of quiet life

(No fights, no rush)
(No fights, no pressure)

The way I handle all my mess
Finding paths through this chaos
From my drawers
To my wardrobe’s space
I’d rather leave to keep up the pace

I wish I could be one of those normal folks
Who never feel the choke

Once in a while
I just want to be
A normal kid
(A normal kid)
But do I need that?
Being unusual feels way better
Uh (it's so much better)
I love being perfectly unique
(A unique kid)
(Oh, yeah)

I wish to believe
All that I seek
Would come from another
Like a gift so sleek
As if they’d mend my shattered parts

But love must rise from deep within
Embrace myself
Choose to hold my hand
And when the world falls apart
I’ll stand by me, just as it should be

Because thinking everything needs a guide
I don’t need direction if my heart’s my pride

Once in a while
I just want to be
A normal kid
(A normal kid)
But do I need that?
Being unusual feels way better
Uh (it's so much better)
I love being perfectly unique
(A unique kid)
(Oh, yeah)
