human

i did my best to notice
[following you to whatever pit you'd go]
[and] when the call came down the line
[i was brought] up to the platform of surrender
[giving up whatever pride was left]
i was brought[...] but I was kind


[you see] sometimes I get nervous
when I see an open door
[the reason is that I never truly believe
that the best can come to me,
and it scares me to close the past]
[but] close your eyes, clear your heart
cut the cord, [and take the leap]


pay my respects to grace and virtue
[they've disappointed me to believe]
send my condolences to good
give my regards to soul and romance
they always did the best they could
and so long to devotion
you taught me everything I know


will your system be alright
[will your heart choose to see]
[and] when you dream of home tonight,
[will your steps lead to me?]

[this] is no message we're receiving
[and the path to happiness is bleeding]
let me know, is your heart still beating?


[after all,] are we human or are we denser?
my sign is vital, my hands are cold
and I'm on my knees looking for the answer
you've gotta let me know
