Human - Mount Eerie

Human, human

Where did your life go?

And how do you live and forget that you died?

Human, human;

You were not proud before

You did not used to talk so loud

Human, human;

You animal, just remember that

Human, human;

There are still songs at night

There are still sounds in the mines below

Let’s get out of the romance

Human, human —

You will not, and I will never, be free

From the weight of our living

The load that our lungs have to lift

The armor we wear

Though we are weary, we fight

Human, human

But you were a baby too, we did not use to be so proud

Human, human

I know the world looks wide

So wherever you go, over and over, just keep saying:

«You win!

You win!»

Don’t destroy me, but go right through me

Take my home and my wife

Human, human

Your generous lungs billow warmth
