Lyrics:

In our Ordinary
Lives extraordinary
Ties bind us together
Those of many races
Shades and hues of faces
Fight a common danger

We as feeling people
Know that those who weep will
Find strength in each other
Time though not the enemy
Won't erase the memory
But our lives will go on

Chorus
Those who bleed
Wish that they had Ordinary Lives
Those who grieve
They just pray for Ordinary Lives
Could we see
Normal as a blessing in disguise
Living and loving
Our Ordinary Lives?

Gossip rules the airwaves
Stars dictate the next craze
It's the new religion
Longing to be famous
Seen in all the papers
Is the main ambition

Far across the waters
War and senseless slaughter
Crucify the blameless
Starving children slaving
To fulfil the cravings
Of the fashion shameless

Chorus

Waking each day
Hoping for change
Wishing our lives away
Can we survive
Unexamined lives?
Do we know the price we'll pay?

Chorus
