From the recording Normal
‘Normal’ is the latest single from Little Lore, the alter-ego of London-based Americana singer-storyteller Tricia Duffy, and will be released on 20th January 2023. Featuring Little Lore’s characteristically astute storytelling and beautifully heartfelt vocal, in tandem with Oli Deakin’s equally engaging arrangement and exquisitely empathetic production, ‘Normal’ is another gorgeous slice of lush Americana from the acclaimed singer-songwriter.
Lyrics
Normal
I spent a while
Believing the view
I wasn’t enough
It’s me, not you
Worshipped ground
That wasn’t true
I was always too much
For you
Why be happy, when you can be normal
Why feel joy, when you can feel awful
Don’t be free there’s a way to be formal
Why be happy
When you can be normal
Normal
Out on the road
Paying my dues
The songs they like best
Are the ones about you
Hated to lose
It made me so blue
I kicked down doors
Without you
Chorus
Learn to be thankful
Really I knew
I can be great
Now I’ve shaken off you
And if you came back
What would I do
I’d say
(spoken) go love yourself
Chorus x 2
