Remain Human Lyrics

Something is different

Something has changed

Something has shifted

I feel strange

I see it in the clouds at night

I feel it in the wind

I see it in the damndest places

I feel it creeping in

And it comes to me

In the single street light above a storage unit on the way home

And I see it

And it teases me

in the ambulance in front of the Lutheran church on 13th street

And it's there in the little girl practicing trumpet on her front porch across the street

And it feels normal

And it greets me at the doorway

And it breathes into my mouth

In my dreams I'm screaming "more weight"

As the tower is falling down

And the air gets thinner

And warmer in the shade of my front maple

And I hang there

And I'm flying higher

To a place I've only wished existed once before

And it's paradise to me

But inevitably I wake up

And hope that it stays
