[Silence]
[Instrumental, Guitar, Electric Piano, Organ, Synth, Bass, Percussion, Drums]
[Intro]
[Loose Drum Beat, Funk Bass, Electric Piano Chords]
Everything that doesn’t fit
(Slightly off… just a bit)
Everything they can’t explain
(Or can’t quite seem to name)
Thrown into another pile
(Or turned into a smile?)
Maybe that’s where the magic came
(Not all being just the same)
[Instrumental: Organ Swell, Guitar Riff, Synth Accent]
[Verse 1]
[Muted Guitar, Bass Groove, Tight Percussion]
Old ideas and crooked lines
Different thoughts and stranger minds
Every person, every face
Looking for their little place
Some stand out and some blend in
Some wear joy beneath their skin
Some are quiet, some are loud
Trying to rise above the crowd
[Pre-Chorus]
[Organ Build, Cymbal Swell, Background Harmony]
All the things they call too strange
Are the things that make us change
Every color, every doubt
Is what being alive’s about
[Chorus]
[Full Band, Driving Guitar, Organ Chords]
Maybe each of us
(Is miscellaneous)
A bit different in and out
(Find it… and shout about)
Maybe every little flaw
(Is what makes us fabulous)
Every hidden part inside
(Is mysterious to us)
[Instrumental Break: Guitar Solo, Organ Flourish, Funk Bass]
[Verse 2]
[Electric Piano Groove, Bass Pulse, Drum Build]
Boxes never fit us right
Labels fade in different light
Every story bends and turns
Every heart still twists and burns
You can spend your life pretending
Or embrace the strange beginning
All the parts you hide away
Might be what saves the day
[Pre-Chorus]
[Synth Pad, Organ Rise, Snare Build]
What they call unusual
Might be what is beautiful
Every crack and every seam
Could become a bigger dream
[Chorus]
[Full Band, Bigger Harmony, Crunchy Guitar]
Maybe each of us
(Is miscellaneous)
A bit different in and out
(Find it… and shout about)
Maybe every little flaw
(Is what makes us fabulous)
Every hidden part inside
(Is mysterious to us)
[Bridge]
[Minimal Beat, Sub Bass, Echo Guitar]
Not broken
Not less
Not something to suppress
Different rhythms
Different routes
Different voices breaking out
[Instrumental – Extended Jam]
[Organ Solo, Guitar Sustain, Bass Run, Drum Build]
[Final Chorus]
[Big Chorus Harmony, Full Band, Wide Guitar]
Maybe each of us
(Is miscellaneous)
A bit different in and out
(Find it… and shout about)
Maybe being who we are
(Is the whole point of all of this)
Every strange and shining part
(Is miraculous)
[Outro]
[Soft Electric Piano, Fading Organ, Gentle Guitar]
Everything that doesn’t fit
(Might be where the magic is)
Don’t give up… never quit
(Miscellaneous and miraculous)
