NORMAL Lyrics -BTS

“Normal” by BTS, which can be considered one of the best tracks of their new comeback album ARIRANG, is a reflection of the realities of being superstars in the modern world. Being produced by Ryan Tedder and Sean Cook, this song describes how fame changed the perception of reality for the boys who came out of military service. Such phrases as “Kerosene, dopamine, chemical-induced / Fantasy and fame” and “Show me hate, show me love, make me bulletproof” reflect the range of emotions people feel under the influence of fame while using the definition of the name of the group, Bangtan Sonyeondan, which means “Bulletproof Boy Scouts.” SUGA repeats himself from the solo single “People,” where the message was the same: the line of demarcation between the ordinary and the special is blurred for him. This idea correlates with what the member of BTS mentioned in his reflections in Break the Silence: “What I see as ordinary now, for others, seems to be extraordinary, but my own experience of the special is ordinary.”

NORMAL Song Lyrics

[Chorus: Jung Kook, Jimin, Jin, V]
Kerosene, dopamine, chemical-induced
Fantasy and fame, yeah, the things we choose
Show me hate, show me love, make me bulletproof
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Woo-woo)
Run away, out of sight, don’t know what I want
Wish I had a minute just to turn me off
Kerosene, dopamine, what I gotta do?
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Ah-ooh)

[Verse 1: Jimin]
Heavy is the head when you chasin’ true
Will you color me red? Will you color me blue?
Two sides of a coin, and they both ain’t true
Is it different for mе? Is it different for you?

[Pre-Chorus: V, Jung Kook]
Got me feelin’ things unusual
And I livе ’em all
Got me and my feelings up on this wall
And my knees-ees

[Chorus: V, Jung Kook, Jin, Jimin]
Kerosene, dopamine, chemical-induced
Fantasy and fame, yeah, the things we choose
Show me hate, show me love, make me bulletproof
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Woo-woo)
Run away, out of sight, don’t know what I want
Wish I had a minute just to turn me off
Kerosene, dopamine, what I gotta do?
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Ah-ooh)

[Verse 2: j-hope, SUGA, RM]
How I’m ‘posed to feel?
Used to think that I was built with a heart made of steel
Now I understand the truth, some pain don’t heal
If everything’s just happy, mm, that ain’t real (That ain’t real)
I breathe everything out like a thousand times
Normal and special, they are just some lines.
One deep sigh, then it slips away, fades away
What I try to keep never want to stay
Runaway, pushin’ me, pullin’ me, said you wanted all of me
But what is even all of me?
Suddenly, part of me is hauntin’ me, heard the things they callin’ me
What the hell you want from me? (Want from me)

[Pre-Chorus: V, Jung Kook]
Got me feelin’ things unusual
And I live ’em all
Got me and my feelings up on this wall
And my knees-ees

[Chorus: Jimin, V, Jin, Jung Kook]
Kerosene, dopamine, chemical-induced
Fantasy and fame, yeah, the things we choose
Show me hate, show me love, make me bulletproof
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Woo-woo)
Run away, out of sight, don’t know what I want
Wish I had a minute just to turn me off
Kerosene, dopamine, what I gotta do?
Yeah, we call this shit normal (Ah-ooh)

[Outro: Jin]
No, we, no, we, no, we call this shit normal
No, we, no, we, no, we call this shit normal, yeah
No, we, no, we, no, we call this shit normal
