New normal, new normal
New normal, new normal
Take a look around
Does the house look situated
Different now
Ain't what it used to be
Before the walls came crashing in
No shelter from the breeze
But I can see in your eyes
That you got me figured out
But can you see through my smile
That I have my doubts
Oh, we cannot go back to the way that it was
When the way that it was is a shadow
Like a kid in the woods
Well we did what we could
Moved along to find our place
But it came to my mind in a nursery rhyme
Like a permanent pill to swallow
With the change of the wind I know we could begin to embrace
The new normal
New normal
You've heard it all before
An anecdote, quote some guru
To help even the score
Even bad company
Is better than the sound of hot air
Blowing in the breeze
But I can see in your eyes
That you got it all figured out
Were you there when we cried
Till the blood ran down
Oh, we cannot go back to the way that it was
When the way that it was is a shadow
Like a kid in the woods
Well we did what we could
Moved along to find our place
But it came to my mind in a nursery rhyme
Like a permanent pill to swallow
With the change of the wind I know we could begin to embrace
The new normal
New normal
Don't ever look back baby
No need to turn around
Follow my lead and maybe
With our feet on the ground
Our head in the clouds
We got this now
But we cannot go back to the way that it was
When the way that it was is a shadow
Like a kid in the woods
Well we did what we could
Moved along to find our place
But it came to my mind in a nursery rhyme
Like a permanent pill to swallow
With the change of the wind I know we could begin to embrace
The new normal
With the change of the wind I know we could begin to embrace
The new normal
New normal
New normal
