Human Being
Lyrics
I don’t want to play the game
I don’t live inside a screen
I′m not for sale, not a brand, not a name
I am a human being
I wanna let all my friends up close
Where I'm fragile, unfiltered and weak
′Cause only the broken can be redeemed
It′s the way of the human being
Form dust we came
To dust we'll go
Still Love has called our names
We were made from more than this fool′s gold
Or acting on this stage
Or can't you feel that ache
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
So teach me the number my days
Turn my eyes from worthless things
I wanna see my children and watch them grow
Wanna pray in the secret when no one knows
Look up at these stars and turn down the noise
And listen for that still small voice
I wanna lay down the trifles and choose the feast
′Cause we were made for eternal things
I am a human
We are all human
We are all human beings
We are all human beings
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh (we are all, we are all, we are all human beings)
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh (we are all, we are all, we are all human beings)
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh (we are all, we are all, we are all human beings)
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh (we are all, we are all, we are all human beings)
