Be Human (Friedrich's Qualm)

from (Sherman Drive, 3​:​37 PM) by Linkletter

lyrics

Remembering my youth, I never wanted to fit in with that group.
I turned away and ran.
And in the past, it couldn't last.
Time just brought me closer to the truth
and closer to my plan...

That I'm here for being something more than a part to a machine.
I have a mind, a beating heart. I am a human being.
Take a look at your reflection. Tell me what you see.
A life is not worth living if it isn't truly free.

And so I'm here today.
How can I even think of throwing this honest life away?
I know it's wrong.
It's the only think that keeps me human,
separating me from them.
The only thing I've known for all too long..

That I'm here for being something more than a part to a machine.
I have a mind, a beating heart. I am a human being.
Take a look at your reflection. Tell me what you see.
A life is not worth living if it isn't truly free.

So I extend this invitation, expecting nothing back
in hopes that I will get your tough exterior to crack.
And I know, my friend, it hurts to risk.
It cuts deep like a knife.
but that's the way I want to live my life.
