Something Human

When I touch the sky each day,
I have a world, to pray,
Some more to say.
Feeling the sound of the empty in my cave,
I am but a newborn, bound to be a slave

There’s something human about my stride,
There’s something human in the way I smile
There’s something human about the way I fight
But it’s all just a myth, as you see through my guile
And now you wake up again until you can sleep a while


When I pray for a new feeling,
I can see myself healing
And a little song I hear,
Humming itself in my ear, year after year
I’m on a journey that is not over, but the end is here

There’s something human about my stride,
There’s something human in the way I smile
There’s something human about the way I fight
But it’s all just a myth, as you see through my guile
And now you wake up again until you can sleep a while


When the light decides to shine,
I’m an angel defending the crime.
The bells have no chime,
Coz I’ve sold them all for a mere dime
In this life, I may not reach my prime.

There’s something human about my stride,
There’s something human in the way I smile
There’s something human about the way I fight
But it’s all just a myth, as you see through my guile
And now you wake up again until you can sleep a while

I do like this. It has a nice feel to it in terms of 'reading' it.

As I said earlier in one of our haze-filled trips, you should look for a tune to acompany this.

Who knows, eh.?

There's something human about the writing here. It's one of those that you can hear in your head, over and over again.


P.S. I am back with a vengeance boys -write and it shall be commented upon!
