We all experience depression from time to time, but some of us remain caught in it's web. Society demands so many standards from us and if we don't conform we are to be considered 'different'. The truth is simply that all of us are different, but what unifies us is that we all are human. We breathe, we eat, we sleep, we need, we die. What's the point in being human? Imagine if you were a ghost and lingering in the steps of the choices you once made- that is what this song is all about. The answer lies with you and your interpretation.
lyrics
Verse 1:
I watch the world end through a dead man's eyes and I linger
longing for your human hands
And I wait here, waiting for the day
when this is over and I am free at last
But the day never comes
and my skeletons grab a hold of me (holding me)
their choking (let go of me)
the day never comes
and my skeletons grab a hold of me!
Chorus:
I wanna wake up
and feel the sun on my face!
(And) I don't want to spend
not one more day without you!
Cause I wanna be human again
I wanna be human again!
But I am stuck,
with these emotions
here in my limbo
Verse 2:
We're in the hour glass now at the very bottom
sifting through the hole of the whirlwind, it finally got us
I just wanna touch your hand, I don't need a promise
let me know I'm still alive cause I'm feeling conscious
And I'll be on my way and not a word you gotta say
I understand myself, the world that I'm trying to relate
Cause sh*t's been crazy different stories from another face
embracing life's delusions break confusions at an older age
forgetting who we are, but losing patience like the fool to wait on love
for what were choosing, not to mention what we'd do to make
another person want us, it's a promise that we knew would break
and put it all behind us like the time it really took to waste
Chorus:
Verse 2:
I turn the news on, nothing really new is on
it's all reality; life is now a sitcom
I sit calm at the bar they run their lips off
talking about sports and cars, women walking in the bar
who they know and who they are; life is all a blog
Just touch my hand and let me know I'm not alone at all!
Don't need a promise I just need to know I'm conscious
watching everybody like nobody even knows that I am standing
right beside 'em in silence trying to find a reminder
am I still alive and breathing, but nobody seems to hear him speaking
and so he holds his peace, waiting thinking he can reach them
at a time when he knows they're really gonna f*cking need him!
Chorus: (Explicit chorus)
Outro/Change up
My eyes are open wide
and it's like seeing you for the very first, time!
And these holes inside, they're filling in
and overtop these bones I have new, skin
cause I'm becoming human again!
I want to be human again!
X2
I'm finally human again!
(And this time, and this time!)
You know that I'd get it right!
And this time I'm gonna live my life!
