Almost Human

Falling through the cracks
Discernment of this fate
Is this all that this vessel can take?
Convulsions within psyche
Till it breaks
Only to display
I am what I was made to hate
Coursing through sick veins

I never felt like your hero
In the battles caught between
Your faith in this art is a remedy
That heals broken wings
Please don't lose the light
That brought me here

I put my heart into zip lock cheap plastic
Held in both hands, you kept a place
Here, you kept a place
To keep me from dying
From a false sense of reason

Now it's all on me
I can try to keep you warm
Set alight to my body
And maybe then I'll feel
Almost human?

No

I never felt like your hero
In the battles caught between
Your faith in this art is a remedy
That heals broken wings
Please don't lose the light
That brought me here

It's like the wounds are now clean
In the atoms of my being
Within a strain of comatose
Calculating the distance
Between luminous bodies
As a measurement for love
Hold me under
Stay above

Forever and clear
Through you
I'm gifted
A new order of mind

Through you I am gifted a new order of mind
