HUMAN LYRICS
Into your space
Hold my tongue with grace
While the weight of my thoughts barely show on my face
It's not my will that keeps me here
Not desire but fear
Of the truth in these lies growing ever more clear
Take a stab in the dark
You'll get it wrong, miss the mark every time
Hiding here in plain sight, my defence
Can you tell me it's a crime?
Take me as I am
Not as you want me, an empty space without a trace
See me as I am
Taking my own course
Not yours
These rules bind
Like chains in my mind
Set down by a faith I have long left behind
In my soul a simple drive
A human need to feel alive
In your world built on fear all I do is survive
Take a stab in the dark
You'll get it wrong, miss the mark every time
Hiding here in plain sight, my defence
Can you tell me it's a crime?
Take me as I am
Not as you want me, an empty space without a trace
See me as I am
Taking my own course
Not yours
I got these crazy thoughts keep bouncing 'round my head
On my way to work I'm driving but my mind is thinking back to bed
Benches, buses, woods and trees, the man next door down on his knees
The girls who do and boys would too
Just the kind of kinks your mother hates
And the priests, dirty sheets, cursing liberal elites
Come in twos and fours and eights
Line us up and cut us down
Put us back where we belong
Out of sight and underground
Take me as I am
Not as you want me, an empty space without a trace
See me as I am
Taking my own course
Not yours
Take me as I am
Not as you want me, an empty space without a trace
See me as I am
Taking my own course
Not yours
