Not Only Human
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Morning is almost here, let it wait
I just want to lie here a while, tempting fate
I don't think i could breathe now with you gone
But it's not weakness, it's just something i've begun
Maybe there's a light that's always on
Maybe we're not only human
Maybe there's a light that's always on
And we're not only human
When you're sleeping you're ceramic
You're surrounded by little stars
Every shimmer is a searchlight
Every planet is ours
Change the street, change the decade
Still the longing's left inside
But why am i too small to carry you?
Why does twilight make me cry?
Maybe there's a light that's always on
Maybe we're not only human
Maybe there's a light that's always on
And we're not only human
When all is said and done
When all the weight is gone
When all is said and done
When all the weight is gone
We're not only human
Life is something set to music
I can hear it when i'm sad
There's a chord in every muscle
Every kiss you ever had
There's a power when you're near me
In our heads or in our bones
I know nothing but i'm guessing
When we die we're not alone
Maybe there's a light that's always on
Maybe we're not only human
Maybe there's a light that's always on
And we're not only human
When all is said and done
When all the weight is gone
When all is said and done
When all the weight is gone
We're not only human
Not only human
Not only human
Not only human
Not only human
