about

I wrote this in preparation for "To Write Love On Her Arms" charity stream. This song was written to highlight human vulnerabilities and the need to help one another.

lyrics

I need direction, I need release
When will it come to me, to me
You had me going, oh I need help
Now there's a hole in my soul, a hole

Wish I could feel something more, something real
My insides are torn, my face is worn
All day I walk with my zombie smile
I confess, I'm a mess, but I'm only human

You gave me joy, you brought me peace,
someday's it's not enough, not enough
Please help me cope, but understand
My mind is not all clear, not clear

Wish I could feel something more, something real
My insides are torn, my face is worn
All day I walk with my zombie smile
I confess, I'm a mess, but I'm only human

Some space in time, let it be mine
For just the thoughts are jumbled.
I can't see straight, I hesitate:
Pick Me Up! Pick Me Up! Pick Me Up! AHHHHHH (3x's)

Focus on a spot, try to connect the dots
on the future, not the past
See past my ups and downs, its ok to frown
You're only human, we're only human.

Wish I could feel something more, something real
My insides are torn, my face is worn
All day I walk with my zombie smile
I confess, I'm a mess, but I'm only human

I'm only human, oh ohhhh oh
