Just a Human
The gray sky is exaggerating the darkness in my mind
I see faces laughing at me, all day and all night
Maybe I overthink or maybe I am right
Both instances haunt me, hunt me and hurt me
It's always an atrocious sight
You tell to perform
But I don't know what to do
I am just a girl
Not a clown in the circus, not a lion in the zoo
It's been done before you say
A legacy of the ages
We were also tortured, so we do the same
Hunters like to kill, for long we served as bait
Now it's our chance and we deserve to shout a shrill melody wrapped up in mind numbing grace
Your voice excels my song
Your moves ruin my dance
And you say you also bothered with this all
And you are just a human
The another person I know
Suffered the same
But she smiles when she talks to me
Her voice is sweet like the summer rain
What happened to me was wrong and I will never do the same
I understand as a human
Playing with people's heart is not a game
Both leave me pondering
One is truly a human
And one is just a human
