Choose Humane Lyrics

I tried to tell you how I feel

How I've felt for so long

But my words they fall around me

Cover the ground and swallow me whole

Now I fear that nothing, nothing will get resolved

Closure's further from my reach

Now this cycle is spinning on and on and on

Don't try to tell me that you hear me

You don't feel me at all

You just sit and wait to speak your piece

It's like I'm talking to a wall

When all is said and done I'm not the only one who feels this way

But it's okay cause I've been silent but

Today, I

Today, I

I'm speaking up

Could you shut your mouth?

Could you hear me out?

I know it's hard to keep the fire that's raging inside

From burning up your heart

You can choose to love

You can choose the light

You can choose to be humane in this twisted game

You have a choice

You have a voice

So use it wisely

Now that you're listening, can you hear me?

Do you feel me at all?

No, you're throwing your words right past me

But they're sticking to a wall

Your angry and venomous words are violent

I silently sit and observe

God knows I've been patient

The high road is long

But I know you'll get what you deserve

I know we get what we deserve

I'm speaking up

Could you shut your mouth?

Could you hear me out?

I know it's hard to keep the fire that's raging inside

From burning up your heart

You could choose the love

You could choose the light

You could choose to be humane in this twisted game

You have a choice

You have a voice

You have a choice

You have a voice

So use it wisely
