Human

Your vision of the dark night
And your song about the truth
Your feelings of one true love
And your vision of a ghost
All are compounded
By a simple rule
Of I don't care
And never will
You only carry what you believe
And anyone can believe a thing
If it makes them feel anything
Close to free
Of the madness in
Their own heads
Listen deep
Listen true
Listen to what
Your own heart
Does to you

Beats beats beats
Pulse on
Blood rushes to the surface
Scratching my own skin
Just to feel normal again
That's so stupid too
What is an intelligent thing
That's so stupid too
Your willingness to believe
Your willingness to give in
And say all you have
Had
All your sadness
Means something
Even more precious
Than your smile
Because it is what you feel the most

And this is why I'm a cynic
Of all the whole damn human race
Earth
A pace too slow
Too fast
To keep on track
With its own self
Oh to be human
Oh to have a mind
Too big for instinct
But not big enough
To even control itself
And this is what I mean
This is what I believe
This is what I think
