Jenny Hval, Félicia Atkinson, Vivian Wang - Ordinary lyrics
[Jenny Hval, Félicia Atkinson, Vivian Wang - Ordinary lyrics]
So, tell me, that time in the sunset
When we entered the sunlight and were apart
Like in every cliché revealing it'self
It's so stupid
Look, a man, a woman, husband
And wife, two strangers
And a representative
From the government performing a dissertation
On love, but, with them
I'm not sure what it was
What am I afraid of? It has to be ordinary
Can I only write these things?
Not all the other things?
Does it come to you for free? I don't know
The curves on her face the most ordinary
The ones she sees the most
The ones that make her cringe
Yet have the power to calm her
From her panic attacks
Because she knows her hands fit there
The skin makes room
Like the groove in my finger long after
I take the wedding ring off
It wrote something there, on my finger
And my skin just gave in
The man's fingers coming through
Just gave in to the ordinary
Giving in to the ordinary
Giving in to the ordinary to the ordinary
To the ordinary to the ordinary
To the ordinary, ordinary to the ordinary
To the ordinary ordinary, ordinary
Ordinary, ordinary ordinary, ordinary
Ordinary, ordinary ordinary
My finger outside again, the chaos
And I wonder what is lost
Long after I take the wedding ring off
We don't always get to choose
When we're close and when we're not
When we entered the sunlight and were apart
Like in every cliché revealing it'self
It's so stupid
Look, a man, a woman, husband
And wife, two strangers
And a representative
From the government performing a dissertation
On love, but, with them
I'm not sure what it was
What am I afraid of? It has to be ordinary
Can I only write these things?
Not all the other things?
Does it come to you for free? I don't know
The curves on her face the most ordinary
The ones she sees the most
The ones that make her cringe
Yet have the power to calm her
From her panic attacks
Because she knows her hands fit there
The skin makes room
Like the groove in my finger long after
I take the wedding ring off
It wrote something there, on my finger
And my skin just gave in
The man's fingers coming through
Just gave in to the ordinary
Giving in to the ordinary
Giving in to the ordinary to the ordinary
To the ordinary to the ordinary
To the ordinary, ordinary to the ordinary
To the ordinary ordinary, ordinary
Ordinary, ordinary ordinary, ordinary
Ordinary, ordinary ordinary
My finger outside again, the chaos
And I wonder what is lost
Long after I take the wedding ring off
We don't always get to choose
When we're close and when we're not
