Human Being Video (MV)

Maybe it's the sappy love song the leaves sing to the trees
And maybe it's the happy look she gets when she sees you still believe
Because it's not the river running up steam, or the lack of finite meaning
And if it's not the raven's reckless rapture then maybe I'm just a human being
I've heard the songs on the radio, whispering malice to my bones
Like love's a game so let it go, and one-day light will guide me home
It's the melancholic melodies that taught me this soul still can sing
And it's the bastard background drum beats that remind me I'm just a human being
Do you remember those nights that we lied awake with the T.V. light on and for my sake
I would tell you everything is going to be okay, that people change almost every day
It's the endless effort I spent between Pandora's box and safe routine
Not the silent, sacred suffering that reminds me I'm just a human being
A human being
So take your message to the bar, and try to bandage up those scars
With religious motivation, a search for gold or education
And I'll pretend like I don't need a war, or trend, or magazine
To distract me from seeing, that I am a human being
A human being
