"Human"
(Ellie Goulding / Starsmith)

Human behave yourself
You have burst at the seams
Let it all fall out, open your mouth
Often I lay 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

[Pre-Chorus:]
To be someone
To be human
Look what we've done
Look what we've done

[Chorus:]
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'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 times 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

[Pre-Chorus:]
To be someone
To be human
Look what we've done
Look what we've done

[Chorus:]
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...

[Bridge:]
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

[Hook:]
I would give my life
I would give my life (hu-u-uman)
I would give my life (hu~u~uman)
I would give my life (hu-u-uman)

[Chorus:]
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...
