Only Human - Diana Lorden

Only Human Lyrics

Take a good look at me
Am I, everything, you hoped I'd be?
Not some sanitized, canonized one
I am flesh, and fear, and blood, and tears, and anger
Said and done, are things, I'm not proud of
Dead are dreams, I'll let it slide,
I have taken, forsaken, and run away
I am missing, and I am guilty
Bound by conscience, bound by the need
I, I am, only, human.
Tensions build, blood gets spilled, everyday
Another mother's baby killed
Just another day
Lay back, relax
It's somebody else's life
And I am powerless

And, I'm in control
I've done, nothing
But, I've done it all
I, I am, only, human
I, I am, only, human.
This is all I know
(All I know) Just, a drop of water?
Just, a grain of sand?
Just, a touch of glory?
Raining in my hand
I, I, I, I, I am, only, human
This is all I know
I, I am, only, human
Oh, this is all I know
