Human Lyrics

Was it powder, was it vapour

When you put it in yer face

Did you have to ask your brother

For the rent you spent away

Did you use the sink to piss

Or did you just stay in your room

You never liked the way

Normal people looked at you

You can't afford your own love

So you sell out your wounds

To any kind of chemical

That tricks you into thinking you're you

Find it in a bottle

Find it in a pipe

Don't you know that your own arms

Can keep you warm at night

Never risk 'em noticing

You weren't really up for the fight

You never liked the way

Normal people would always do right

But you held it with such grandeur

Yeah, you held it with esteem

The way you hold that substance

That's been killing all your dreams

You lost your mind in August

But you found it in the spring

Just altered and diminished

Of all its capacity

You could not afford your own love

So you sold out yer wounds

To any kind of chemical

That made you feel human
