#weareonlyhuman
I stand here naked in the crowd A spotlight hits me where I'm proud. I'll flash the skin of my bones I will cry to you! Hear my moans! I will come clean in the open field Remove my mask and lower my shield Oh please, shoot me in my roots. Bleed me! Throw me off my boots. I am but only a human being. For it's not just the lies I'm not seeing. Refuse to be more than I'm capable of. There is no such thing as peace, fly off, dove! I have lied, I have deceived. I have hated and I have grieved. But I am only mortal. Imperfect human and fertil. A beast of the many. Proud of inventing the penny. I stand here telling the truth! The elder, the grown and the youth! We are but a brink of humanity! Already through our sanity! Hit me with your words which shall not be spoken... I hope, I dearly hope, I'm not alone who feels awoken. Here the world will grand a token. For my fellow who are broken, Accept we are but only human, Yet human we shall be...
