Human Lyrics

I've started lookin' you up to see

If you've gotten further along than me

It's hard isn't it to let go of the thing we need

So I've started crafting my apology

I'm not sorry for leaving

I'm sorry that I made you bleed

You're not what I needed

And I'm sorry 'cause that sounds so mean

You were a season

You were the one with colors and leaves

That's why I'm leaving

Leaving by way of your memory

And I think we're all human just kinda doin'

The god damn best that we can

Cuz I didn't want to hurt you, and I still believe in you

Despite some of the things that I've said

And I'd take all of the blame for you

If I thought that that were right to do

And there's so many times I thought of it

You see I'd take all of the shame for you

You know like the way I used to do

But I fear this would happen again

This isn't wrong is it

To love you and hate you the same

I'm goin' along with it

'Cause my feelings have led me this way

I stopped trying to solve it

Yesterday I dug the grave

You should've seen me sobbing

When I picked up flowers on the way

Don't you go startin' rumors and nonsense

Or I'll let down my decency

I'm doing you just fine, I paint you in a good light

In fact I just ran into Elise

It's clear she's on your side

So I swallowed down my pride

I think that means I'm setting you free

But I don't know sometimes

When I'm alone I still cry

Then I get to thinking it was me

And I think we're all human just kinda doin'

The god damn best that we can

Cuz I didn't want to hurt you, and I still believe in you

Despite some of the things that you said

And I'd take all of the blame for you

If I thought that that were right to do

And there's so many times I almost did

You see I'd take all of the hate for you

You know like the way I used to do

But I fear this would happen again

So I fired all my therapists

'Cause every one led me to this

My gut is smarter than my head

But my best friend's back in therapy

And I thought he looked good to me

But I accept him for who he is

And soon as I started saying that

He looked at me in his blue hat

And said, "Man, I think you learned your lesson"

I'll never know if there's a god

I'll try to do more right than wrong

And bam, that's one hell of a plan

This is the end, and I don't know what else to say

I'll just pretend that I everything I know is okay

And if I send you a letter and you get it someday

Will you then read it with a smile on your face
