Only Human Lyrics

A squirrel in the tree, is he watching me?
Does he give a damn? Does he care who I am?
Im just a man, is that all I am?
Are my manners misinterpreted words or only human?
Im humanMurderous crow, hey, what you know?
What you raving about? What you hold in your toes?
Is that a twig? Are you a dove of peace?
Black dove undercover with another puzzle pieceAre you a riddle to solve all along?
Or am I overthinking thoughts, I'm human after all
Only human, made of flesh, made of sand
Made of humanThe planets talking about a revolution
The natural laws aint got no constitution
They've got a right to live their own life
But we keep paving over paradiseCause were only human
Oh yes we are, only human
If its our only excuse, do you think we'll keep on being only human?
Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so farUp in the majors tree
The one he planted back when he was just a boy

Back in 1923
Thirty meters and a foot, take a look, take a climb
What you'll find is the product of a seedThe seed is sown, all alone
It grows above with a heart of love
A sharpened shelter of
The animals of land and cold weather breathing
We're all breathingThe planets talking about a revolution
The natural laws aint got no constitution
They've got a right to live their own life
But we keep paving over paradiseCause were only human
Oh yes we are, only human
If its our only excuse, do you think we'll keep on being only human?
Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so farAnd this place it will outlive me
Before I get to heaven Ill climb that tree
And I will have to give my thanks
For giving me the branch to swing onIf I ever fall in love
I'll hope to give myself a baby
I will let my children have their wayBecause were only human
Oh yes we are, only human, so far, so far
So far, so far
