Human (iv Fridays) Lyrics - Brooke Fraser

We are watching apparitions of ourselves 

Two inventions with no earthly tongues to tell 

Still suspected, we lay the surface to repel off of 

We are mirages, a trick of light, a sleight of hand 

When what we want is to be touchable again 

All five senses emerging from the fog 

Let's be human while we still remember how 

It is not a failure to be flawed 

It's beautifully symptomatic 

I am not afraid of being more 

Than what I've been 

I want to see how the light falls 

I want to feel it on my skin 

So how do I begin? 

It is not a failure to be flawed 

It's beautifully symptomatic 

I am not afraid of being more 

Than what I've been 

It is not a failure to be flawed 

It's beautifully symptomatic 

I am not afraid of being more 

Than what I've been 

I want to see how the light falls 

I want to feel it on my skin 

So how do I begin? 

We are breezes chasing after wind 

Two unjoined pieces searching for a way to fit 

Sleepers waking in the half light up till now 

Let's be human while we still remember how
