Only Human

Rest, you've seen too much,

You don't have to fight it anymore,

Rest, you've seen too much.



My guard is down and my insides,

Are spilling from my stomach,

But you grab a straw,

To slurp it off the ground.



I need to eat your wisdom,

And become secure again,

I need to regain and ascertain,

I see I'm only human,

There's so much I can retain,

I need to prove I can still maintain,

And prove I am not insane.



Sleep, you've cried too much,

You don't have to fight it anymore,

Sleep, you've tried enough.



My guard is down and my insides,

Are spilling from my stomach,

But you grab a straw,

To slurp it off the ground.



I need to eat your wisdom,

And become secure again,

I need to regain and ascertain,

I see I'm only human,

There's so much I can retain,

I need to prove I can still maintain,

And prove I am not insane.



I won't let you hold me now,

All you'll do is slow me down.



Put me down, put me down,

Put me down, make me feel more human.
