Текст Horrorshow – New Normal

On time but the rent’s late
Put it off till the next day
Scraping by off of spare change
But one day I’ma get straight

And maybe there’ll be set backs and broken dams, days when things don’t go to plan
Tell me what’s your coping strategy?
‘Cause baby don’t forget there’s no going back, make the most of what we have
Through the triumph and the tragedy
We pray for better days and learn while we wait
They may never come, nothing’s guaranteed
We do it anyway, accepting the fate
Meant for us is the one it has to be
Still one by one we come from nothing, tryna make it something
Knowing that we can’t take that something when we turn to nothing
Somehow we know it ain’t for nothing, now ain’t that something?
End of it all I just learned one thing and it goes a little something like

When the day breaks, when the night falls
When the time comes, and my name’s called
I’ma say grace, let the cards fall
I just hope I can say I gave my all
When the day breaks, when the night falls
When the time comes, and my name’s called
I’ma say grace, let the cards fall
And hope I gave my all

On time but the rent’s late
Put it off ’til the next day

You’ll find me watching it unfold
Tryna find my way through the world, push boundaries, go beyond my limits
‘Cause I know it don’t revolve around me
It’s more that I evolve within it
And I know you know it too, though sometimes you can’t quite put a finger on it
It’s an understanding shared between us, there’s no need to linger on it
These past couple years have been crazy
One minute I’m all smiles, up on stage taking a bow
The next I’m alone on a street corner
Tears streaming down my face while I’m breaking down
Taught me that this life is pleasure and pain at the end of the day
And despite what we might tell ourselves it’s out of our control
All we can do is try and stay afloat and pay the rent
So if you’re out there fighting battles in your head
Waking up to mornings when it’s a struggle to make it out of bed
Let this be your reminder, there’ll be better daze ahead
I dedicate this album to you, you know who you are
For the journeys still before us and the stories behind your scars
Be brave, be strong
Persist, persevere, believe
That’s all any of us can do
Oh – and enjoy!
Find the joy that you deserve inside your every day
The delicious meal you just ate
The friend who made you laugh or asked you how you are
The sun on your face
The birds chirping in the trees around you
The sights, the sounds, the ups, the downs, all of it
‘Cause it’s cliché as fuck, but it’s true
You never know when it might happen to you
The New Normal

When the day breaks, when the night falls
When the time comes, and my name’s called
I’ma say grace, let the cards fall
I just hope I can say I gave my all
When the day breaks, when the night falls
When the time comes, and my name’s called
I’ma say grace, let the cards fall
I just hope I can say I gave my all

I just hope that I gave it my all
