 Well I got my heart up in a beautiful mess
 I should’ve known better when I took the risk
 To wreck myself and to gamble while broke
 Shaking something mental at a loss for the words I’d once known
 I traded two  steps forward for three steps back
 To get to know the meaning of showing respect
I  found the pedestals and burned them down
 To kill my idols and to bury the thoughts underground
 I’m no longer deaf to the sounds
I’m  hardly  feeling human  anymore
 Enough  to drag my body  from the floor
Well  I got my head up in a critical mess
 Fighting like a demon in a shell I possess
Gnashing  my teeth and speaking in tongues
 Still shaking something mental at a loss of the words I’d once known
 Something’s rattling my bones
I’m  hardly  feeling human  anymore
 Enough  to drag my body  from the floor
I’m  hardly  feeling human  anymore
 Enough  to drag my body  from the floor
 Intermission:
 Stand to hold steady now
 To take a breath and somehow
 Take a step to begin again
 After all we can only do out best
I’m  hardly  feeling human  anymore
 Enough  to drag my body  from the floor
I’m  hardly  feeling human  anymore
 Enough  to drag my body  from the floor
 A B (ends with Bass)
  Stand and hold steady now
