Ellie Goulding Lyrics

Human

Human, behave yourself, you have burst at the seam,

Let it all fall out, open your mouth,

Often, I lie wide awake, think of things I can make,

But I don't seem to have the parts to build them.

Human, I wonder why you're a better make,

Than I could ever build or create, you know not love or hate,

I am so scared of what will kill me in the end, for I am not prepared,

I hope I will get the chance to be someone, to be human,

Look what we've done, look what we've done.

I would give my life to be human, I would give my life to be human,

I would give my life to be human, I would give my life to be human.

Human, I'm trying to come clean, I will be a better me,

I will not drink until I'm dead, I'll make the most of it.

I don't know what it's like to be alive, to say goodbye, to cry a thousand tears,

Because my ears won't listen.

Human, I'm trying not to lose my faith in you, 

I've sussed out all that I've seen through, I've sailed an ocean,

I am so scared of what I'll look like in the end, for I am not prepared,

I hope I will get the chance to be someone, to be human,

Look what we've done, look what we've done.

I would give my life to be human, I would give my life to be human,

 I would give my life to be human, I would give my life to be human.

I used to hear it all so loud, the sound of my heart breaking.

The truth is waiting to be found, I trust that I will take it, I would give my life.

I would give my life, human.

I would give my life, human.

I would give my life, human.

I would give my life to be human, I would give my life to be human,

I would give my life to be human, I would give my life to be human.
