Human Being

Lyrics

I am a human being And I will let you down And everything I say Will come right back around Because I am a human being And I will let you down And everything I say Will find its way back around But if this should come as some surprise That I became less gentle with the time That I would lose my perfect shine My angelic stance inside your eyes Then I hope you can learn to forgive There is no hero where you thought I lived I'm man and nothing more than this and Perfection's weight, I cannot lift I'd like to think you tried your best To understand my loneliness And I used to think you were someone That I could love and maybe even trust But recently I've lost my faith And the hope I once saw in your face The truth has become clear to me Your reservations make you weak, they make you weak Because I am a human being And I will let you down And everything I say Will come right back around I see you in everything No matter where I go, what song I sing You have lived inside of me Filling the void of what could never be Well time and space were never kind To lovers bound by this design And the words we use to speak our minds Well this language fails at best when tried Every time, every time, every time, every time
