Human Touch

they're turning on the cameras now

turning on the lights so bright

I'm blinded and I'm afraid

you will see what's on my mind

you kill me for a detail view

in a green gown under fluorescent lights

dissect me with a surgeon's knife

leaving all kindness aside

I will not be suing you

for wanting to see something new

you're just like the rest of us

out of your mind, out of touch

you taught me that it's not enough

to be alive, to be touched

I am shaky I can't see

so I trust you more than I trust me

what should I do with my fear?

leave it to the gate and run

say it's not your baby

then what will I do with my heart?

bury it on the backyard

say one day you'll be back

no reason to feel bad

wanted to see what I'd do

craving to see something new

well, turns out I'm like all of us

vulnerable to human touch

I'm just like the rest of us

vulnerable to human touch
