Only Human

Squirrel in the trees, you're 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 raving about, what you hold in your toes?

Is that a twig, are you a dove of peace?

Black dove undercover with another puzzle piece

Are you a riddle to solve all along?

Or am I over thinking thoughts, I'm human afterall

Only human, made of flesh, made of sand

Made of human

The planet's talking 'bout a revolution

The natural laws ain't go no constitution

They've got a right to live their own life

But we keep paving over paradise

'Cause we're only human, oh, yes, we are only human

If it's our only excuse, how do we think we'll keep on

Being only human, yes, we are only human

So far, so far

Up in the major's tree, the one he planted

Back when he was just a boy, back in 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, a sharpened shelter of

The animals of land and cold weather breathing

We're all breathing

The planet's talking 'bout a revolution

The natural laws ain't go no constitution

They've got a right to live their own life

But we keep paving over paradise

'Cause we're only human, oh, yes, we are only human

If it's our only excuse, how do we think we'll keep on

Being only human, yes, we are 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 hope to give myself a baby

I will let my children have their way

Because we're only human, oh, yes, we are only human

So far, so far

So far, so far
