I saw a vision of you (today)
And I won't do anything to make you feel betrayed

Can't find the time to look inside
And realize that I can't hide
I can't be me unless you're there
This situation's so unfair
I look at you and tell myself
That you're with me and no one else
You need some help
If not for you than for myself
Chorus:
It's hard to be honest with myself
I need some time so I can figure out
So I won't be ordinary (ordinary)
I solved the mystery of you (today)
And I don't treat everyone and everything that way
Can't find the time to look inside
And realize that I can't hide
I can't be me unless you're there
This situation's so unfair
I look at you and tell myself
That you're with me and no one else
You need some help
If not for you than for myself
Chorus
I can't decide if I'm all right
I feel inside I need some help
But I'll deny the things I hide
If not for you than for myself
I know there's better ways to be
It's not easy and it's hard
It's hard to be honest with myself
I need some time so I can figure out
So I won't be ordinary
So I won't be ordinary
'Cause I'm not ordinary

    General Comment:I disagree.... I think this song is about trying to figure out who you are. When you're around a certain person, you act a certain way and you put on a mask. When you're away from that person, you're just ordinary, nothing exciting about you. So, you try to take some time away and find out who you really are, so you can brak out of the ordinary persona and be what you really are instead of what someone else wants you to be.

    General Comment:It's about you wanting to be the only one in someones life when that someone has so many people that he/she considers more important than you are. You don't want to be just ordinary to this person. You try to convince yourself that you're the only one, but you're not.
