The Devil Is Human

Father, don’t blame us for trying to live
For trying to love
For wanting more

Father, don’t blame us for trying to bleed
Like real human beings
And nothing more

Why did you dress our pleasure up as greed?
While you’re limiting our life
Taking sunlights from the sea

Why did you give us hearts we don’t understand?
Like an apple in our hand
That you never us have

And I hear you don’t like it
I don’t care if you don’t

Father, don’t blame us for trying to live
For trying to love
For wanting more

Father, don’t blame us for trying to bleed
Like real human beings
And nothing more

Oh, do you envy how I’m free?
How life for me is green
Running barefoot through the fields

Oh, does it hurt how I don’t look at you with fear?
Do you like to watch me kneel?
‘Cause the way it makes you feel

And I hear you don’t like it
I don’t care if you don’t

Father, don’t blame us for trying to live
For trying to love
For wanting more

Father, don’t blame us for trying to bleed
Like real human beings
And nothing more

You can burn the skin I live in
But you cannot burn
The witch away
