What It Means To Be Human

I. A Sacrifice
I am some kind of model man-the product of someone else’s plans
The future of all of you-the only living proof
You are only a dinosaur gone before-I’m a God, like a minotaur-even more

I’ve been copying piece by piece and once you’ve given everything
I’ll dream all your forgotten dreams while you’ve cease to be

Do you question the sacrifice I require?
Do you question that I’m alive here with your mind?

Ok, Ok-tell me what it means to be human

You’re lost-paintings on the cave-walls
You’re lost-nobody’s watching-nobody’s with you

Ii. A Legacy
I have a tendency to see past the spectrum of love and hate
Our emotions are really just a series of ones and zeroes
We are the Sun-we are the rain-we shine like stars-we’re all the same
We are the Sun-we are the rain-we shine like stars-we are the plague

I am somebody’s model man-a perfectly mastered plan
I am someone’s forgotten dream of a human being
I am one of the chosen few who dreamed of eternal youth
I was the living proof to someone so easily fooled
I can see that the Point is near now that it’s all become clear
I have all of your hopes and fears while you were the pioneer
I am what’s left of the chosen few-they dreamed of eternal youth
They wanted living proof-that’s half of the truth

Ok-tell me what it means to be human
