We were never ordinary
All the weight we carry
Will help us write our story
In the darkest night, you were born to shine

When the night grows cold
But your blood runs warm
And everything you touch
Just melts away and leaves you alone
No one understands
The noise in your head
Such a simple melody playing over and over again

But why would you wanna blend in
When you are drenched in gold

We were never ordinary
All the weight we carry
Will help us write our story
In the darkest night, you were born to shine
We were never ordinary
All the weight we carry
Will help us write our story
In the darkest night, you were born to shine
We were never ordinary

It was never far
Never out of reach
The ember in the dark lies quiet
Burning just beneath
Isolated, complicated
Will we find a way to make it out alive
And not feel so alone, oh

But why would you wanna blend in
When you are drenched in gold

We were never ordinary
All the weight we carry
Will help us write our story
In the darkest night, you were born to shine
We were never ordinary
All the weight we carry
Will help us write our story
In the darkest night, you were born to shine

You don't have to hide away
Your individuality
'Cause when I look at you I see that you're just like me
A misfit runaway
With gold buried underneath

We were never ordinary
All the weight we carry
All the weight we carry
Will help us write our story
In the darkest night, you were born to shine
We were never ordinary
Never ordinary
All the weight we carry
All the weight we carry
Will help us write our story
In the darkest night, you were born to shine
We were never ordinary
In the darkest night, you were born to shine

We were never ordinary
