They're Only Human

Look at how they crawl around
Upon the ground
Like little ants

Yes, but how they fascinate
Confusing fate
With what is merely chance

Isn’t it a laugh?
Isn’t it a shame?
Thinking there is someone in heaven to blame

Yes, but even while blaming fate for the lives that they lead
They hope for the lives that they need

Living every day ‘til the day they die
Never getting answers

Yet still asking why
Going through the motions as if there will be a reward
While we stay eternally bored!

They’re only human
They don’t see
Who they are is who they’ll always be

Only human, after all
So they push and they shove
With this thing they call love ‘til they fall!

Isn’t it a farce?
Isn’t it a waste?

Struggling to face what can never be faced
Yes, but maybe death can release something more than we share

I really don’t know and don’t care
They’re only human
Standing still
Doomed to live pushing boulders uphill

Only human, after all
So they give and they take
Hoping someone will help break their fall

They will pray, curse, live die
Never knowing their truth is another man’s lie

Eat, sleep, love, hate
Like a leaf blowing in the wind
Watch them all vacillate!

They’re only human
They can’t see
All the years they could give you and me

Only human, after all
So they give and we take ‘til their silly hearts break
Looking down from above I’m intrigued by their love

So let’s call!
Hmmm, let’s call
