Cast away all the enemies of yesterday
to mediate all the memories that come our way
there's a better life,
now you know that I am on your side
your beady eyes
burn a hole right through the back of mine
I am out of time
I'm an ordinary man
like everybody else
just a common counterfeit
I'm an ordinary man
hesitate while the world is just a step away
to recreate all that innocence that time can take
I am wide awake
I'm an ordinary man
like everybody else
just a common counterfeit
I'm an ordinary man
I'm an ordinary man
like everybody else
just a common counterfeit
I'm an ordinary man
I'm an ordinary man
