Her first original composition was titled ‘I Had A Dream’, which referred to how hard the world can be.

ORDINARY WORLD
Aurora Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio
Still I can´t escape the ghost of you
What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some´d say
Gone away
But I won´t cry for yesterday
There´s an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
"Pride will tear us both apart"
Well now pride´s gone out the window
Cross the rooftops, run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart
What is happening to me?
Crazy, some´d say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away
[Chorus]
Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Here today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
[Chours]
Every one is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one is my world
Every one is my world
The lyrics of "Ordinary World" by Aurora f/Naimee Coleman tell a story about longing, loss, transition, and survival. The singer of the song, who is not explicitly identified, feels lost and bewildered as she tries to come to terms with the absence of someone important in her life. The opening lines suggest that it is a rainy day, which may reflect the mood and emotions of the singer. She thinks she hears the person she misses talking softly to her, but it's only a ghost of their presence. Despite turning on the lights, the TV, and the radio, she cannot escape the feeling of emptiness and loneliness. The chorus provides a glimmer of hope, as the singer tries to find her way back to the "ordinary world" and learns to survive in the absence of her loved one.
The second verse suggests that the person she misses may have warned her about the dangers of pride and how it could "tear them both apart." However, now that they are gone, the singer feels like she has been left in a vacuum of her heart, struggling to make sense of her feelings and emotions. The third verse juxtaposes the singer's personal struggles with the suffering and greed depicted in the papers on the roadside. While the world seems to be consumed by holy wars and holy needs, her own sorrowed talk is just a small part of the bigger picture. Yet, the final repetition of "Every one is my world" suggests that the singer is willing to find solace and meaning in the connections she has with the people around her, even if they are not the ones she originally sought.
Line by Line Meaning
Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
Arrived home after a bad day, feeling down and out
Thought I heard you talking softly
Imagined hearing a lost love's voice
I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio
Tried to distract from the feeling of loneliness
Still I can´t escape the ghost of you
Memories of past love continue to haunt
What has happened to it all?
Wondering how things have changed so drastically
Crazy, some´d say
Others might consider feeling out of sorts irrational
Where is the life that I recognize?
Feeling like everything familiar is gone
Gone away
Everything familiar is gone
But I won´t cry for yesterday
Not dwelling on the past
There´s an ordinary world
Still a world full of normalcy
Somehow I have to find
Striving to discover stability
And as I try to make my way
Working hard to keep moving forward
To the ordinary world
Finding a sense of normalcy and simplicity
I will learn to survive
Strengthening oneself through adversity
Passion or coincidence
Uncertain if past love was real or just chance
Once prompted you to say
A love from the past said something important
"Pride will tear us both apart"
Ego and arrogance damaged the relationship
Well now pride´s gone out the window
Realizing that pride was destructive
Cross the rooftops, run away
Fleeing from past love but unable to escape thoughts
Left me in the vacuum of my heart
Feeling empty and hollow inside
What is happening to me?
Feeling lost and unable to understand emotions
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Missing the comfort of a friend during hard times
Papers in the roadside
Reading about pain and suffering in daily life
Tell of suffering and greed
News depicts the worst parts of humanity
Here today, forgot tomorrow
Current events are quickly replaced and forgotten
Ooh, here besides the news
Bad news is ever present
Of holy war and holy need
Religious conflict and moral obligation are constantly discussed
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
Personal pain and heartbreak seem trivial compared to global issues
[Chorus]
Repeating the refrain of finding strength and survival
Every one is my world, I will learn to survive
Finding strength within oneself and everyone around
Any one is my world, I will learn to survive
Finding strength in each individual
Any one is my world
Recognizing the value of every person
Every one is my world
Realizing the importance of all individuals

Came in from the rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you

Where is the life that I recognise?
It's gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say

Well now pride's gone out the window
'Cross the rooftops, run away
