Only Human

A squirrel in the tree is he watching me

Does he give a damn

Does he care who i am

I'm just a man is that all i am

Are my manners misinterpreted words or only human

I'm human

Murderous crow hey what you know

What you reading about what you hold in your toes

Is that a twig are you a dove of peace

A black dove undercover with another puzzle piece

Are you a riddle to solve all along

Or am i over thinking thoughts of human after all

Only human

Made of flesh made of sand made of you and me

The planet's talking about a revolution

The natural laws ain't got no constitution

They've got a right to live their own life

But we keep paving over paradise

'Cause we're only human

Yes we are only human

If it's our only excuse do you think we'll keep on being only human

Yes we are yes we are

Only human only human only human

So far

Up in the major's tree

The one he planted back when he was just a boy

Thinking 1923

Thirty meters and a foot take a look take a climb

What you'll find is the product of a seed

The seed is sown all alone

It grows above with a heart of love

Sharp and shelter of the animals of land and cold weather breathing

We're all breathing in

The planet's talking about a revolution

The natural laws ain't got no constitution

They've got a right to live their own life

But we keep paving over paradise

'Cause we're only human

Yes we are only human

If it's our only excuse do you think we'll keep on being only human

Yes we are only human only human so far so far

And this place it will outlive me

Before i get to heaven i'll climb that tree

And i will have to give my thanks

For giving me the branch to swing on

If i ever fall in love

I'll have to give myself a baby

I will let my children have their way

'Cause we're only human yes we are

Only human so far so far
