Navigating the complexities of change and nostalgia, this track explores the emotional turmoil of evolving relationships. The lyrics depict a narrator reminiscing about past experiences with an old acquaintance, possibly a former lover or friend. This person's physical changes - growing hair and getting tattoos - symbolize deeper shifts in their personality and lifestyle. The references to specific events (seeing 'Chuck kiss Livy Jeanne', 'the stair before the dance', 'Halloween') evoke a sense of longing for simpler times, while also acknowledging that those days are irretrievable. The phrase "being so normal" could be ironic, suggesting that what was once considered 'normal' has become alien due to these changes. Ultimately, the song paints a poignant picture of personal growth, memory, and the inevitable divergence of paths over time.
Being so Normal
Lyrics
"Is this on?"
She said, with unblinking eyes
In the front yard when we stepped outside
"You're alright"
I thought I heard her say to me
But I was freaked 'cause I saw Chuck kiss Livy Jeanne
Sometimes I can still see you
Just like I used to
But I grew my hair and you got tattoos
And man, that's hard to look through
Somebody took the piss right out of me
For the last time right before that Halloween
Who was that, on the stair before the dance?
And why do you go and say that this could never last?
Sometimes I can still see you
Just like I used to
But I grew my hair and you got tattoos
And man, that's hard to look through
