Anything But Ordinary is the eighth track on Avril Lavigne's debut album Let Go. It was written by Avril Lavigne, Lauren Christy, Scott Alspach and Graham Edwards.
Theme
The song is about “living it up” being herself. She doesn’t want to be an ordinary girl, she likes to wear her baggy clothes, acting the way she wants.
Lyrics
Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby
Sometimes I drive so fast
Just to feel the danger
I want to scream
It makes me feel alive
Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out and leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
To walk within the lines
Would make my life so boring
I want to know that
I have been to the extreme
So knock me off my feet
Come on, now, give it to me
Anything to make me feel alive
Is it enough to love?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out and leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
Let down your defenses
Use no common sense
If you look you will see that this world is
A beautiful, accident, turbulent
Succulent, opulent, permanent, no way
I want to taste it
I don't want to waste it away
Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby
Is it enough? Is it enough?
Is it enough to breathe?
Somebody rip my heart out and leave me here to bleed
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
Is it enough?
Is it enough to die?
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
I'd rather be anything but ordinary, please
