I hold the door, I wait outside
You never see the way I try
I'm in your orbit, but not your sky
You don't even ask me why
I'm the friend, I'm the face
I'm the name you might replace
But I've been here all along
Just hoping I belong
I don't wanna be ordinary
Just a shadow in your memory
Wanna be the voice you hear
When the silence feels too near
I don't need to be a star
Just someone who knows your heart
But I can't keep pretending
Ordinary's not ending me
I laugh too loud, I talk too low
I stay behind so you don't know
All the ways I try to shine
In a world that dims my light
I'm the joke, I'm the phase
I'm the line you never say
But if you looked close, you'd see
There's more to me than just a scene
I don't wanna be ordinary
Just a page in your old diary
Wanna be the one you miss
Not the name you always skip
I don't need the world to see
Just want you to believe in me
But I can't keep pretending
Ordinary's not ending me
Maybe I'm not gold or flame
But I'd still burn for you the same
If you saw the real me once
Would it even be enough?
I don't wanna be ordinary
Like the rain in February
I could be your something more
If you'd just unlock that door
I don't need a million eyes
Just yours to realize
That I've always been
More than ordinary
