[Verse 1: Tom]

She works a 9-5 at a shitty job

Just to waste it all on alcohol

That says it all

Her parents think that she could focus more

On becoming better than she was before

But it feels like war

[Verse 2: Tom]

She just can't waste another day

On trying to fit in with everybody else's ways

She doesn't know or realise

That everybody else just feels the same as her inside

[Chorus: Tom]

It's the long nights, the long days

When you're a forgotten castaway

It's always a freak-out, doomsday

When you're a forgotten castaway

Sleeping with the enemy

Shots fired, you're a casualty

Normal's not normal anyway

It's okay not being okay

[Verse 3]

She didn't go the school, life felt too tough

Getting through the day was hard enough

'Cause she would, if she could

But she can't, so she shan't

And life is the hardest when their knives are the sharpest

Nobody knows there's anything wrong

[Verse 4]

She can't just waste another night

On putting out the fires that she feels but always hides

[Chorus: Tom]

It's the long nights, the long days

When you're a forgotten castaway

It's always a freak-out, doomsday

When you're a forgotten castaway

Sleeping with the enemy

Shots fired, you're a casualty

Normal's not normal anyway

It's okay not being okay

[Bridge: Tom]

If you're okay with not being okay

If you wanna be someone or something one day

The world goes to sleep and the night comes alive

The truth hides away in fluorescent lies

But we don't care now

[Chorus: Tom, with Jake]

It's the long nights, the long days

When you're a forgotten castaway

It's always the fucked up people that got something to say

To the forgotten

Sleeping with the enemy

Shots fired, you're a casualty

Normal's not normal anyway

It's the long nights, the long days

When you're a forgotten castaway

It's always a freakout, Doomsday

When you're a forgotten castaway

Sleeping with the enemy

Shots fired you're a casualty (Fired, you're a casualty)

Normal's not normal anyway

It's okay not being okay
