Listen you all, Big or small, To the words of a fellow human, To whom my thoughts are only blooming, With my eyes I see, People smile with glee, With my eyes I observe, People who constantly live on nerve, With my ears I listen to, Some speak of affection that grew, With my ears I hear, Words that make me shead a tear, With my nose I find the scent, Of every love letter I've sent, With my nose I smell, The odors of hell, With my tongue I speak, Of all the good times that happened this week, With my tongue I talk, Of things that I mock, With my hands I touch, Everything that I like so much, With my hands I feel, All the pain I can't heal,   On being human, It's living, As a breathing, Contradiction.

On being human
Listen you all, Big or small, To the words of a fellow human, To whom my thoughts are only blooming, With my eyes I see, People smile with glee, With my eyes I observe, People who constantly live on nerve, With my ears I listen to, Some speak of affection that grew, With my ears I hear, Words that make me shead a tear, With my nose I find the scent, Of every love letter I've sent, With my nose I smell, The odors of hell, With my tongue I speak, Of all the good times that happened this week, With my tongue I talk, Of things that I mock, With my hands I touch, Everything that I like so much, With my hands I feel, All the pain I can't heal,   On being human, It's living, As a breathing, Contradiction.
We are all living, breathing, contradictions.
