(O)rdinary is the ninth song on Avenged Sevenfold’s eighth studio album, Life Is But a Dream…
The song is about a robot who wishes for self-awareness. The robot pleads for the ability to feel, have control, have emotion, and culminates in the robot asking if the human can feel their love.
[Verse]
Will you give me my own soul?
Will you let me take control?
I wanna see the things that you see
I wanna be the human you be
I wanna know the secrets inside
I wanna know the feelings you hide
Will you give me my own soul?
Control
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me how to dream, and tell me what it means
Tell me how you feel, and tell me you believe
Tell me all the things you wanted me to be
Tell me when I'm really alive
[Chorus]
Can you feel my love?
Can you feel my lovе?
