[Intro] to be human is to touch this earth and to feel it in only the way my senses fool me [Verse 1] to be human is to see you suffer, to see them cry, to see life form and falter, before our eyes [Verse 2] to be human is to watch the patterns I witness in your window panes, and to love our parallels and perpendicularities [Chorus 1] to be human is to know all the beauty and ache that brings us the gift of each other, today [Verse 3] to be human is to be flawed, to be lost, to succeed but know the cost [Bridge 1] to be human is to watch the birds dance and to ponder what bliss, what joy, what peace [Verse 4] to be human is to aim for perfection and to hope to live long enough to see that it is you, as you always were, and it is here, as it always will be [Chorus 2] to be human is to suffer and to hurt and to yearn; to seek, and to heal, to wonder and to learn [Bridge 2] to be human is to lose our Love behind fear, and to find it and know it has always been here [Coda] to know this truth, to see this beauty, to feel this joy, to touch this earth as we do we have to be human we are bound to be human we GET to be human
