Pretend I'm Human

Body parts and torn thoughts held tight

By the snapped strings

Of a life an individuals course

Dreaming with the demons that take naps in my mind

Like a suicide ride, but the scenery blinds

Watch us evolve straight into a brick wall

Brains collide like tough guys

You can see it how we walk

Lean, push off

Lean, push off

Lean, push off

A million kings in New York

Pretend I'm Human

Witness riffs and useless gifts

Twist to console and council

Those who can't follow

Excused for their civilness

Egoist too proud to know which floor to kiss

Known to prey on minds stake out crimes

Based on lines that confine

Some are blind, some rewind

When you hear the that's about to hit you

You tell yourself half of the picture

Pretend I'm Human

Search for the definition in a suicide nation

Shock is obsolete like a killer with compassion

Rubber souls to feet bounce on city streets

It's electric justified narrow mind protected

Botched ideas, violent years, vacant tears

Most severe is the day when my hero dies

Look between my eyes for my vision

Hotter than the life I've been living

Pretend I'm Human
