Only Human
(专辑: Swing To The Right - 1982)
It's only human to despise the
weak It's only human to despise yourself when you're weak I
don't know why But that's the
way that it's always been And I
play by the
rules I
don't understand at all It's only human to be lazy and vain It's only human to expect a
world that's just as vain Oh, I
don't know why I
want to believe that it's not that way But I'm johnny-come-lately, it's not my place to say There's no escape, tell me why do they try so hard? And I
pretend that I'm invincible That I
can go it all alone But I'm only human, trying to get by And praying to heaven I
might find out Why am I
human, mere flesh and blood Afraid to go on without someone to hold me up It's just a
human thing to fear the
unknown But isn't it a
tragic thing to live and die alone Oh lord look at the
world Have you ever seen so much misery? Like a
ghost ship of fools, lost and floating out to sea There's no escape, tell me why do they try so hard? And they climb and they fall Yet they struggle on the
same fault But they're only human, trying to get by And praying to heaven they might find out Why are we human, mere flesh and blood We're afraid to go on without someone to hold us up Human, try to get by And praying to heaven they might find out Why am I
human Mere flesh and blood Afraid to go on without someone to hold us up...
