*Through David's perspective*


I want to be normal, I say to myself

Kneeling beside my bed, I repeat in my head

Please let me be normal, my eyes close

Just another wish on my shelf

Hoping only God could help me

I don't need to be a burden to anyone else

It would be easier if I just disappear

Then face the problems that are going to appear

I can't keep pretending that they won't because they will

So I was there in my room kneeling beside my bed

Repeating in my head, Please let me be normal

It didn't happen, after all it was just another wish on my shelf
