| It must be nice to be normal it must be nice to be cold |

| There are things we say we wish we knew and in fact we never do |

| If you think too hard it only makes you mad |
| But your optimism made me think you really had it beat |
| So I didn't get a chance to say goodbye |
| I didn't get a chance to say goodbye |
