Nothing will prepare you for the ordinary war
If you're sitting waiting, you'll be waiting evermore
Living underwater, I just learned to hold my nose
Drinking from the fountain with a million lonely souls
No one will prepare you for your loss of innocence
Pennies and the dollars and the old forgotten mints
Probably just looking for some old stability
Stuff it in your pocket like they do it on TV
Oh, I know you know what I mean
You're looking just as lost as me
When did teachers teach us how to be
Alright when it's a storm in me
It's always been a rough and tumble ordinary sea
Everything is blurry when the world is running by
They touch me on the arm, but they don't look me in my eye
I sit here with a magazine and shuffle my feet
And dream about the hands that write the words that I read
Oh, I know you know what I mean
You're looking just as lost as me
When did teachers teach us how to be
Alright when it's a storm in me
It's always been a rough and tumble ordinary sea
Oh, I know you know what I mean
You're looking just as lost as me
When did teachers teach us how to be
Alright when it's a storm in me
It's always been a rough and tumble ordinary sea
